What happens after an AV crashes? That split-second response can make all the difference—and that’s exactly what the Automated Vehicle Safety Consortium (AVSC) is focused on.

Backed by decades of engineering and mobility expertise, the AVSC brings together top minds in AV development to align on critical safety issues. Their latest work tackles one of the most urgent: how these vehicles should react and communicate after a crash. As AVs expand from test fleets to real-world deployments, the industry needs clear guidance now more than ever.

Listen in as we sit down with Jonathan Barentine, Principal Engineer at the AVSC, to discuss the organization’s just-released best practices for automated driving systems in the moments following a collision.
