The autonomous vehicle industry lacks a standardized method for reporting safety data, making it difficult to compare performance between companies or back up claims of being safer than human drivers. Researchers and industry bodies are calling for federal regulations to mandate consistent data collection, including vehicle miles traveled, but legislation has stalled.
