#TfL has confirmed it does not hold information on the reporting of safety incidents, near misses, or system failures by #autonomous vehicle operators such as #Waymo, #Uber, and #Wayve, nor on the start dates of their 2026 autonomous ride-hailing trials. Reporting requirements fall under the Automated and Electric Vehicles Act 2018 and the Automated Vehicles Act 2024, which govern vehicle authorisation for self-driving operation. The upcoming Automated Passenger Services permitting scheme, not yet in force, will allow the DVSA, with TfL consent, to issue permits for autonomous passenger services in London.
