    The paper is a powerpoint presentation on the role of legislation and standards in automotive safety assurance. The following topics were covered in the discussion: the context of the automotive industry; public attitudes to risk; safety standards such as the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), MISRA, and IEC61508 which covers ISO/TC22/SC3/WG16 standards; current trends in automotive software usage and development - such as the use of UML, control modelling tools, code-generators, floating point arithmetic, MISRA-C and hardware-in-the-loop testing; and the future of road transportation.
