This paper focuses on the potential problems of the introduction of digital technologies in transport in the socio-economic and legal dimension based on the assessment of the current state and development trends of the info and communication in the transport infrastructure in Russia, foreign experience. Moreover, it performs specific proposals for legal and financial regulation of issues and minimization of risks of liability for harm in conditions development of information transport systems. The paper analyses the role of the programs “Digital Economy of the Russian Federation” and “Safe and High-Quality Roads” in the development of intelligent transport systems that constitute some promising areas of the use of unmanned vehicles to improve the quality of life of people. Furthermore, we assess the development of entrepreneurial activity, high-tech industries, and the increase the investment attractiveness of Russia and analyse the strengthening of its position in the international arena. When it comes to the methodology, we use legal analytics, legislative technology, comparative law, and expert assessments. The results of this research reveal the features of the legal regulation of new and promising emerging relations in the digital economy. This is a strategic legal planning and legal experiment. Based on this conclusion, a system of prerequisites for the development of intelligent transport systems based on the analysis of national programs is formulated. The system of prerequisites includes three levels: I) technological prerequisites, II) infrastructural; and III) regulatory
Justification of an Integrated Approach to Ensuring Information Security of Unmanned Vehicles in Intelligent Transport Systems
