Abstract

It is crucial to validate driving behaviour against current road rules to improve Autonomous Vehicle (AV) safety. Validating the AV behaviour is challenging due to the way Queensland Overtaking Road Rules are written, as it includes vague terms and exceptions. This research introduces a Defeasible Deontic Logic (DDL) based framework to validate AV driving behaviour against current overtaking road rules. The overtaking maneuver is the case study to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed system. The evaluation shows the effectiveness of the approach.
