US to Propose Ban on Chinese Software in Autonomous Vehicles

The Commerce Department cites national security concerns as it prepares new regulations affecting Level 3 and higher automation.

The ban targets Chinese-developed software and advanced wireless communication modules in autonomous vehicles.
Automakers must verify their software is not from 'foreign entities of concern,' such as China.
The proposed rule would also prohibit testing of Chinese autonomous vehicles on US roads.
The administration recently increased tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles and related technologies.
A meeting with international allies discussed the cybersecurity risks of connected vehicles.
