Self-driving and partially automated vehicles are becoming increasingly common on roads in Dallas and throughout Texas. While these technologies are designed to improve transportation, accidents involving autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles can raise complicated legal questions.
According to our Truck Accident Lawyers in Dallas, when a crash causes serious injuries, determining who may be responsible can require a detailed investigation.
Suppose you’re travelling along I-35E near Oak Lawn, cruising the Dallas North Tollway, passing through Deep Ellum, or merging onto US-75 in Uptown, without warning, a driverless vehicle suddenly enters your lane—or crashes into your vehicle unexpectedly, know what do you do during the next moments.
Your actions immediately after a collision can help protect your health and potential claim:
Unlike a traditional car accident, a self-driving vehicle collision may involve several potentially responsible parties. Depending on the circumstances, liability could involve the vehicle manufacturer, software or technology provider, rideshare or fleet operator, maintenance provider, or a human safety driver.
Determining responsibility may require examining vehicle data, cameras, electronic records, software performance, maintenance history, and other evidence. Because some of this information may be controlled by companies or third parties, acting promptly can be important.
An experienced attorney can investigate the crash, identify potentially responsible parties, preserve relevant evidence, work with qualified experts, and handle communications with insurers and other companies. At Shev Law Group, we understand that emerging vehicle technology can make accident claims particularly complex.
