| Autonomous vehicles (AVs) pose new environmental liability challenges as a new class of vehicles rapidly takes to the road. The legal framework model for human-operated vehicles is not able to anticipate the emissions and ecological consequences of AV operations. In this Research, the authors highlight the limitations of current legal doctrines and suggest potential new models for integrating environmental accountability into AV liability registration. To create a robust liability system that focuses on environmental damages as the primary lens for AV technology manufacturers/operators to be held responsible for their ecological impacts. The use of the Multi-Factor Environmental Liability Model (MELM) was implemented through a mixed-method approach that involved legal doctrinal analysis, comparative case studies, and applying the Multi-Factor Environmental Liability Model (MELM). The process involved reviewing both primary and secondary data (statutory laws, regulatory policies, and court cases) and carrying out quantitative simulations of liability scenarios. The findings suggest that hybrid liability models, which combine strict liability and a no-fault approach, are the most effective solution. By providing price signals, these models assist in reducing emissions while keeping costs under control. The study emphasizes the importance of global regulatory harmonization and cross-disciplinary cooperation for sustainable environmental outcomes across jurisdictions. The study asserts that liability systems must adapt to pollution caused by AVs. The Research presents a hybrid model as a practical and flexible approach, emphasizing the need for continuous interdisciplinary interaction between legal scholars, environmental fellows, and engineers to achieve sustainable development of AV technology. | ||
