Under the driving environment, the equipment should not cause any worries that endanger the safety of people in the car or other road users.
Do not operate the equipment unless all necessary operating and driving environment conditions are met.
Before any operating driving environment becomes unsatisfactory, the equipment must warn the driver to return the control right to the driver, and must continue to drive safely until the handover is completed. When handover is not possible, the equipment must stop the vehicle safely.
The device must have a driver monitoring function to monitor the driver's condition.
Equipment must take network security measures to prevent security threats such as unauthorized access.
In addition, the recording device must obtain data for 6 months (or 2500 uses), showing when the system is turned on or off, when the system sends a handover warning to the driver, and when the driver cannot hand over. Cars equipped with the system must also have special stickers to show that they have the function of automatic driving.
The above words seem a bit complicated. The reason for this regulation is that the three-level automatic driving technology allows the vehicle to fully control the driving function. More importantly, the vehicle allows the driver's hands and eyes to be undisturbed, but the driver must be ready to take over control at any time. It is a red tape in legislation to determine when to make this handover, how the driver should respond, and whether the system can safely control the vehicle under various circumstances.

If Honda sticks to this timetable and does not encounter other problems, it will beat the three-tier system of Mercedes-Benz and take the lead in listing.
It remains to be seen whether its application will be limited by speed and location similar to that of the S-class, but it may not be available outside Japan soon because the approval comes from Japan.
