Behavioural risk relates to the behavior of the driver at the steering wheel. In level 5, such risk shifts entirely to the vehicle, as the contribution of the human component to the driving tasks vanishes.

 Internal risk is associated with the possible failure or malfunctioning of software/hardware components of the vehicle.

 Connectivity risk relates to the capabilities of the vehicle to connect and communicate bidirectionally with the outside world.

 Cyber risk refers to the surface of attack/entry points the vehicle offers to malicious intruders, which could impact the algorithm, the software/hardware as well as connectivity.
