No matter how much companies acure us that self driving cars are safe, nearly 43% of people in the US don’t feel safe in a driverless car. No one can assure you that if you choose a self driving car you won’t be involved in a autonomous accident. Automobile producers claim that self-driving cars will reduce traffic while increasing highway safety. Some manufacturers even promise to produce an injury-free cars. Even though such statements sound very ambitious and certainly are good for society. Though it is probably unachievable as even the best systems can fail due to programming errors or mechanical failures.

An extensive investigation and analysis will be a requirement to learn about the causes and details of the accident. As well as seeking out for evidence or identifying and interviewing witnesses.

Who Is Responsible?

The accident involving an autonomous vehicle may raise a lot of questions, like “who is responsible for the accident?” or “can the victims have compensation for their injuries?”. It is worth noting that comparative negligence law also applies to automobile accidents involving autonomous cars. Comparative negligence means that if you have any contribution to the accident, the amount of damages you can recover will decrease by the percentage you were at fault.
