  • Surveys show high levels of concern regarding vehicle security: 90.9% [34], 54% [199], 68% [37].

    “Surveys showed high levels of concerns regarding security as follows:90.9% of respondents are concerned about vehicle security [34]54% of respondents are concerned about vehicle security [199]68% of respondents are concerned about vehicle security [37]”

    From Public acceptance and perception of autonomous vehicles: a comprehensive review (2021) · cites this paper as [37]

    Section 3.3 reports that respondents were most concerned about software hacking and misuse, supporting the general point about vehicle-security concerns. It does not report that 68% of respondents were concerned about vehicle security; the 68% in section 1.1 refers to acceptability in a different survey. (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

  • In Greaves et al.'s Australian survey, 68% were highly concerned about AV system safety.

    “The survey by Greaves et al. in Australia shows that 68% of the respondents are highly concerned about the safety of the AV system [37].”

    From Public acceptance and perception of autonomous vehicles: a comprehensive review (2021) · cites this paper as [37]

    Section 1.1 (page unavailable) does not mention a Greaves survey or report that 68% of Australian respondents were highly concerned about AV safety. It instead reports that 16% of Australian respondents in a Schoettle and Sivak survey were “very concerned” about system failure and performance; its 68% figure concerns acceptability among French drivers. Searched for Greaves, 68%, and Australian safety concerns. (LLM, conf=0.78)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

  • Greaves et al. Australia survey: 64% highly concerned about liability.

    “The survey by Greaves et al. in Australia shows that 64% of the respondents are highly concerned about the liability of the AV in case of accident [37].”

    From Public acceptance and perception of autonomous vehicles: a comprehensive review (2021) · cites this paper as [37]

    The ‘Previous surveys on automated driving’ section discusses liability concerns in a survey covering Australia, but identifies that study as Schoettle and Sivak (2014a), not Greaves et al. Neither that passage nor the searched passages report that 64% of Australian respondents were highly concerned about liability in an accident (searched: Greaves, 64%, liability). (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
