Self-driving cars are becoming much more common on today’s roads. While the hope is that these vehicles can reduce human error and make crashes less likely to happen, unfortunately, there are still some significant safety risks. In fact, there have been many incidents of self-driving cars becoming involved in collisions.
Since the law is still evolving on these issues, as self-driving cars are a relatively new technology, it is important that you are represented by an attorney with the experience necessary to handle these types of complex cases.

Who Is Responsible for Self-Driving Car Accidents?
When another driver causes a car accident, you are allowed to hold that driver liable for your losses. When the case involves a self-driving car, though, things become much more complicated as there are multiple potential defendants, including:
- The operator of the vehicle, who still maintains an obligation to pay careful attention behind the wheel and who still must be ready to step in and avoid a crash if the self-driving vehicle is operating unsafely
- The manufacturer of the self-driving car, if a problem with the technology itself was the cause of the collision
- The owner or operator of the self-driving car if, for example, a company is using these vehicles to provide taxi or delivery services
Berry Law will assist you in understanding which defendants you should pursue a claim against to maximize the chances of getting full compensation. We will also help you to make the right legal arguments for different kinds of claims, as a product liability case is different from your typical car accident claim.
