BEIJING, July 23 (Xinhua) — China will tighten regulations on intelligent driving as current "smart driving" systems in vehicles have not yet reached the target of full autonomous driving, Wang Qiang, head of the Traffic Regulation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, said Wednesday.

"The driver remains the primary responsible party for driving," Wang Qiang said at a press conference organized by the State Council Information Office.

He stressed that if a driver takes his hands off the steering wheel or looks away from the road while the vehicle is moving, this not only creates a serious threat to road safety, but can also entail legal risk in the form of compensation in a civil case, administrative penalties and criminal prosecution. -0-
