## Abstract (arXiv)

We present FAERDXEL, a tool for symbolic reasoning in the domain of Danish traffic law. FAERDXEL combines techniques from logic programming with a novel interface that allows users to navigate through its reasoning process, thereby ensuring the system's explainability. Towards the goal of better understanding the value of FAERDXEL, two evaluations of the system have been performed: (1) An empirical evaluation showing that for a selection of court cases, the conclusions of FAERDXEL align with those of Danish judges. (2) A qualitative evaluation from legal experts indicating that this work has potential to become a foundation for real-world AI tools supporting professionals in the Danish legal sector.
