The liable entity may also change depending on the accident circumstances, and if so, how to decide? Are there any different basic model scenarios of incidents/accidents with respect to AVs? How should the law react if the criminally liable entity is also a legal entity ?

Criminal Liability
Criminal liability is a form of legal liability. It deals mainly with those issues in which
we have to find out who is criminally liable in case of an accident. It also deals with the
issues related to cybercrime and hackers. While using AVs, there can be many different
criminal liability situations, i.e., how many different kinds of crimes can be done within the perspective of AVs and who will be held responsible when the AV commits such a crime?
The liable entity may also change depending on the accident circumstances, and if so, how to decide? Are there any different basic model scenarios of incidents/accidents with respect to AVs? How should the law react if the criminally liable entity is also a legal entity ? Similarly, corporate criminal liability is also important due to the fact that AVs are used to relieve the driver. However, if the driver still has to remain attentive even during autonomous mode  and is not permitted to do other work such as reading a book, then the question arises: what is the purpose of an AV?

[ 14, 15] In the same way, the use of an AV may increase unintentional crimes such as causing someone’s death, injuries or illness, etc. Moreover, another important question is
whether an AV can do a crime deliberately. Therefore, new legal rules should be defined which will take care all of the criminal liability issues. Similarly, cyber-crime is also a new major dilemma which must be taken care of by using criminal codes, regulatory standards, and technical norms [14].
