Autonomous Vehicle Testing Permit Requirement Congressional Review Emergency Amendment Act of 2025

This bill requires all companies testing autonomous vehicles (AVs) on District of Columbia roads to obtain a specific AV testing permit before conducting driverless testing. It also mandates that entities testing AVs without a permit must have a trained test operator physically present in the vehicle, comply with all local/federal laws, and provide the District Department of Transportation with 10 days' advance notice - including vehicle details, locations, and testing dates. The law amends the 2012 Autonomous Vehicle Act to enforce these requirements, repealing previous sections that allowed permit-free testing under certain conditions. This emergency measure applies immediately and remains in effect for 90 days.
