Assessing the Readiness of Greece for Autonomous Vehicle Technologies
share
Despite the debate regarding the timeframe and rate of penetration of Autonomous Vehicles, their potential benefits and implications have been widely recognized. Therefore, assessing the readiness of individual countries to adopt such technologies and adapt to their introduction is of particular importance. This paper aims to enrich our understanding of EU readiness regarding the introduction of autonomous vehicle technologies by assessing the case of Greece. Thus, through a literature review, the criteria upon which such an assessment should be based are established and analyzed. Subsequently, the case of Greece is assessed based on those criteria by finding relevant sources that support and justify any assessment. Regardless of the outcome concerning the readiness of Greece, such an assessment should help identify areas in which focus should be given in order to ensure a smoother transition to such technologies. This contribution is expected to assist policy makers in Greece.
