NHTSA is announcing a public meeting as part of the Agency's effort to seek public comments to identify any regulatory barriers in the existing Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) to the
testing, compliance certification, and compliance verification of
vehicles with Automated Driving Systems (ADSs) and certain
unconventional interior designs.
Created in 1946, the Howey
Test works toward determining whether an
unconventional financial
vehicle requires the same regulation as familiar investments like stocks and bonds.
