The use of autopilot has allegedly led to car accidents due to malfunctioning and driver misuses. This Omaha personal injury lawyer warns that manufacturing companies may risk lawsuits.
Omaha, United States - October 5, 2019 /PressCable/ —
Over the last few months, there has been a string of car accidents resulting in personal injuries being blamed on defective autopilot and safety features in cars. Auto accidents have occurred with semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, pedestrians, other cars, and even stationary objects. Families are able to sue the manufacturer for personal injury or wrongful death in some cases. Many of these personal injury cases go through the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which can identify when the autopilot was turned on, how long it was used, and even how often the feature had been used.
“These cases are going to occur more frequently as an increasing number of cars have autopilot features included by default,” Matthew G. Miller, Omaha personal injury lawyer at Matthew G. Miller, PC, LLO, warns. “The cases now are just opening people’s eyes and showing just how defective these products are. There are thousands of cars with an autopilot feature on the road and the number won’t drop. When the feature works, it is incredibly impactful. When it doesn’t, it’s deadly.” Click here to learn more about cases focused on personal injury in Omaha, Nebraska: https://www.mgmillerlaw.com/practice-areas/personal-injury/.
Often, the auto manufacturer responds to the personal injury and wrongful death claims by saying that the driver did not use the autopilot feature properly. “Becoming comfortable with autopilot can certainly be helpful,” Miller says, “but if the system itself is faulty, there is no amount of practice that can help.”
