In this chapter, we review the history of AV technology and the technology’s status as of July 2013. Our goal is to provide a nontechnical summary of the technology and its limitations for an interested policy audience. The current state of technology in particular is relevant for several near-term policy decisions:Will states need to regulate AV models that may each have different operating limitations—and, if so, how?What kinds of safety testing and verification will be required before the first AV is commercially available?What near-term actions can state and federal transportation agencies take to increase the safety
