The aim of this study is to provide strategic and practical advice to the European Commission General Directorate DG MOVE on the policy-related actions required to address disruptive digital developments, particularly the transition to automated driving and its effects on driver behaviour and performance. Automated driving brings a number of changes to the traffic system. The topics addressed include the expected evolution of automated driving, changes in human-machine interfaces (in the vehicle and in interactions with road infrastructure), traffic rules, driving licences, and the training of professional drivers. It includes also a reflection on these topics towards the development of a code of conduct for the transition to automated mobility. Based on a broad literature review and the views of experts, different issues are discussed, and a number of policy-oriented recommendations are put forward.
