Social and behavioural questions associated with automated vehicles: a literature review
This literature review is part of a wider scoping study commissioned by the UK Department for Transport that aims “to identify the key social and behavioural questions associated with AVs”. This literature review has informed the formulation of the research questions and recommendations which can be found in the main report. This review summarises the various themes and topics that have been addressed or discussed in the academic and in the grey literature relating to the behavioural, social and societal aspects of automated vehicles (AVs). The study also highlights the gaps in the literature linked to these topics. It is important to note that the abbreviation AV(s) is used in a comprehensive and inclusive way in this literature review. It covers the full range of automation (e.g. full or partial) and encompasses both vehicles that are “automated” (i.e. operate independently of other vehicles) and those that are “controlled” (i.e. follow instructions set outside the vehicle, be that by a second vehicle or central system). This general term has been deliberately chosen to reflect the lack of precision found in the literature.
