The introduced bill is titled to inform consumers about capabilities and limitations of partially automated vehicles. Its consumer education section would bar misleading claims and require first-sale notices describing the features, capabilities, limitations, operational domain, and driver tasks for partially automated driving systems.
Assessments
Schrier sponsored H.R. 7377, the Know Before You Drive Act, which directly matches the promise by seeking consumer notices and limits on misleading claims about partially automated vehicle capabilities and limitations. The bill advanced out of House subcommittee by voice vote on February 10, 2026, but Congress.gov still lists it as introduced and not passed by the House, Senate, sent to the President, or enacted. Because she made a serious same-term legislative effort but the promised consumer-information regime has not yet become law or otherwise been implemented, the outcome remains unresolved rather than delivered.
