Analysing the legal implications of cross-border data collection and usage within connected and autonomous vehicles on the island of Ireland: selling safety for privacy? Jordan Leinster (24292844) PUREID: 685060253 Autonomous vehicles automated vehicles connected vehicles connected and autonomous vehicles road safety law privacy Law data law artificial intelligence law Northern Ireland law This research project focuses on the cross-border regulation of data within connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs). It uses the island of Ireland as a model to deploy a socio-legal methodology which considers the interplay between road safety and privacy laws when CAVs cross international borders. Analysis of these areas will seek to ascertain whether it is possible to reconcile potential conflicts in a balanced and proportionate manner, whilst exploring interactions between the automotive industry and regulators in the UK and Ireland. It is anticipated that conclusions from this research will produce recommendations for the development of future laws pertaining to CAVs in Northern Ireland, before attempting to posit international standards for the control of data during cross-border CAV use.<br><br><i>Thesis is embargoed until 31 July 2027.</i> 2026-10-01T16:14:15Z Text Thesis 10.17034/32805662.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/thesis/Analysing_the_legal_implications_of_cross-border_data_collection_and_usage_within_connected_and_autonomous_vehicles_on_the_island_of_Ireland_selling_safety_for_privacy_/32805662 All Rights Reserved Open Access after 2027-07-31
