As self-driving cars<\/a> become more prevalent, so do reports of accidents involving these high-tech vehicles. Despite their advanced technology, these cars are not infallible. A recent investigation revealed that the autonomous features of a well-known car brand failed to meet even basic driving standards. Stories in the news highlight issues ranging from vehicles operated by drivers under the influence to drivers sleeping while the car drives itself. In a recent incident in Texas, two men were testing a self-driving car without anyone in the driver’s seat to take control if needed.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Misleading Term: “Driverless”<\/b><\/h4>\n

The term “driverless” is somewhat misleading. The more accurate description is “driver-assist” because these systems are designed to support, not replace, the driver. The driver remains responsible for maintaining physical control of the vehicle. This means that, despite the car\u2019s autonomous capabilities, the driver must be ready to intervene in case of an emergency. Understanding and adhering to the manufacturer\u2019s instructions regarding these assistive technologies is crucial.<\/span><\/p>\n

Legal Claims<\/b><\/p>\n

The law in this field is new and evolving. Legal claims available following crashes involving driver-assist (\u201cself-driving\u201d) capable cars can run the spectrum from driver negligence to product liability. There are many variables that will ultimately dictate which legal path to pursue.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Seeking Legal Assistance<\/b><\/h4>\n

Self-driving vehicles, like traditional cars, are equipped with data-recording systems that can provide valuable information following an accident. This data can be crucial in determining liability and understanding the circumstances of a crash. If you are involved in an accident with a self-driving car, consulting with the legal experts at Shlesinger & deVilleneuve is essential. They can help you navigate the complexities of your case and ensure your rights are protected.<\/span><\/p>\n
