Due to restrictions in time and budget, the study focused on five automation use cases only. The selection was made from a tentative list of automation use cases specified by ERTRAC with a potential of being commercially available in Finland in 2030 while also allowing interesting ODD variations. The following use cases were selected in the Finnish study [2]: (1) highway autopilot including highway convoy; (2) highly automated (freight) vehicles on dedicated roads; (3) automated PRT (public rapid transit)/shuttles in mixed traffic; (4) commercial driverless vehicles as taxi services; and (5) driverless maintenance and road works vehicles.
