Automated Vehicle Safety Consortium

Overview
The Automated Vehicle Safety Consortium (AVSC) was created by SAE International, Ford, General Motors, and Toyota. It will work to help safely advance the testing, precompetitive development, and deployment of SAE Level 4 and 5 automated vehicles. The AVSC will provide a safety framework around which autonomous technology can responsibly evolve in advance of broad deployment, ultimately helping to inform and accelerate the development of industry standards for autonomous vehicles (AVs) and harmonize with efforts of other consortia and standards bodies.
