Highly Automated Driving (HAD) opens up new middle-term perspectives in mobility and is, therefore, currently one of the main goal in the development of future vehicles. In particular, premium manufacturers, such as the BMW Group, put Highly Automated Driving at the top of the roadmap. This chapter details the motivation behind Highly Automated Driving from a road safety perspective. Assessing the effect of HAD functions on road safety is essential for the homologation of such complex systems. New methods are needed to enable the assessment of complex driving functions and demonstrate the increase in road safety. This problem will be considered and to a possible approach will be referred. Furthermore, the additional (indirect) safety benefit will be described through the usage of HAD technology to improve Active Safety Systems.
