Abstract

Intelligent Vehicle Telematics has been a promising industry in the world. This new development of telecommunication technology has emerged with some legal concerns, especially in the liability for failure of safety devises and the protection of information privacy within Intelligent Vehicle Telematics. The purpose of this article is to gain experiences from the discussion for these issues in academic papers and related cases within the United States, in order to depict the possible solution for safety related legal issues and the protection of privacy with regard to developing Intelligent Vehicle Telematics.
