CA SB572

Requires manufacturers of Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) vehicles to report crashes to the California Department of Motor Vehicles within 5 calendar days when the ADAS was engaged within 30 seconds of the crash and the incident resulted in a fatality, hospitalization, airbag deployment, or impact with a vulnerable road user

Imposes a civil penalty of $27,874 per violation per day on manufacturers that fail to report qualifying crashes to the DMV

Mandates the DMV to post crash data on its website and transmit it to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and National Transportation Safety Board every other month, while protecting proprietary business information and personally identifiable information from public disclosure

Defines "vulnerable road user" to include pedestrians, wheelchair users, bicyclists, motorcyclists, and occupants of non-motor vehicles such as ATVs and tractors

Becomes operative only if the federal Third Amended Standing General Order 2021-01 (which currently requires similar crash reporting) is repealed and not replaced with equivalent federal requirements, as determined by the Director of Motor Vehicles
