Lockton and Nexar Introduce Human-Benchmark Framework for Autonomous Vehicle Safety

▤ Summary

Lockton and Nexar have launched a human-benchmark framework to measure autonomous vehicle safety against real-world human driving. The framework is aimed at insurers, regulators, and AV developers who need an independent standard for evaluating risk and performance. Nexar is also packaging the offering through two capabilities: Risk Index for contextual operating-domain risk and Apex for verifying systems against curated edge cases. The release positions the framework as a third-party validation tool that can support underwriting, safety claims, and broader AV commercialization.
