Milestones for AV Trials
     Milestones are used to assess AVs before they are allowed to proceed to their next phase of
     trial
            Each milestone test will produce a test report with recommendation which is used by the Land Transport
             Authority as one of the decision criteria to “pass” the AVs

        Milestone 1
            Ability to safely conduct
             testing of autonomous vehicles
             with safety driver in a small scale
             testbed.

        Milestone 2
            Ability to safely conduct testing of autonomous vehicles with safety driver in a complex
             environment.

        Milestone 3
            Ability to safely conduct testing of autonomous vehicles without or with a safety driver (with limited
             control) in a complex environment. This implies high technical maturity.

M3 assessment flow

      The overall M3 test scope tailored
      to the operational environment and
      capabilities of the vehicle

      clarification on the relationships
      between milestones and test areas
      in order to develop true driverless
      capabilities

PART 1 – BASIC BEHAVIOURAL GUIDELINES
Basic Behavioural Guidelines

        What are they?
          Rules and clarification to the driving license requirements as described in the Basic Theory of
           Driving and the Final Theory of Driving

        Why are they needed?
          The driving rules are written for human drivers, not engineers

          Because desired driving behaviour is context sensitive, the driving rules are not black or white.
                “The driver shall indicate in time when changing lanes” (what is “in time”?)
                “The driver shall pass a stationary object on the road with a gap of minimum 1.5m” (So if the 1.5 m gap
                 is not feasible, do you stop and just wait till something makes it feasible?)
            With the current state of technology, some driving rules are no longer relevant or are no longer
             able to be complied with. Waiting till the technology is matured might not be a realistic option.
                “The driver shall follow the hand signals of an authorised officer” (if AI can recognise all hand signals,
                 can it differentiate between an authorised officer and a random person? And what if this random person
                 is a citizen taking necessary action at an accident site until the police has arrived?)
