Car Accident Attorney Los Angeles
You judiciously hand over your hard earned money
to auto insurance companies in hopes your
premiums will work for you when you need them to.
You do this assiduously year after year to ensure
that you and your loved ones will be protected in
the event of a tragic vehicle accident or serious
injury due to negligent highway drivers or
otherwise poor drivers. So, you find yourself in

insurer would come across apologetic, maybe
accommodating to your needs? Unfortunately,
theyre quite the opposite. Almost immediately,
they scramble to protect their finances. Then,

accident, they offer seriously injured persons a
pittance. Literally, a check large enough to
maybe pay for 1/3 of the damages with no medical
bill payments. JML Law, the Car Accident Attorney
Los Angeles that assists clients throughout the
L.A. County Area and beyond, represents victims
in personal injury matters, including long-term
disability claims that stem from your auto
accident claim, insurance adjusting disputes, and
more.

How to find Whos Liable in an Autonomous Car
Accident?
In the past decade, there were sightings of
several different car brands and their
self-driving vehicles. These autonomous cars
are supposed to be safe and programmed to safely
get you from one destination to another. However,
there have been reported cases of accidents
involving autonomous cars. But who is to blame in
such a situation? Call experienced and
knowledgeable Los Angeles car accident attorney
and found out that even though there is a small
number of self-driving cars out there, accidents
still occur. Here is what you can do when you
find yourself in a car accident involving an
autonomous vehicle, and here is who you can file
a claim against in that situation.

Who To Blame?
Since most autonomous cars have a steering wheel
and a manual driving mode, usually there is a
driver behind that wheel. If that driver decided
to let the autopilot take him home or safely
park the vehicle, in case there is an accident,
that driver will be held responsible. It is the
drivers responsibility to drive the vehicle and
to react if the vehicles software malfunctions.
Since a computer software is responsible for
keeping the car on the road, if it is not updated
when a newer version is available, it could cause
the car to malfunction, in which case it is the
driver/owner of the vehicle that will be held
responsible once again. In the majority of
cases, the car owner or the one sitting behind
the wheel is responsible for all accidents caused
by the vehicle. However, there are a few
situations where someone else is to blame. More
about that is listed below.

Car Manufacturing Company
Companies like Uber and Tesla are trying to
revolutionize the transport, by producing
autonomous or the so-called smart vehicles.
These are available to everyone and can be
purchased for a reasonable amount of money. These
cars are equipped with dozens of improved sensors
which help the cars positioning system and help
it navigate down the road, as well as avoid any
obstacles on the road. However, technology can
fail and when it does, there are consequences. If
you were involved in a car accident involving a
malfunctioning self-driving car, you may be
eligible to sue the car manufacturing company.

You may sue them for the following reasons

• A glitch in the system
• Malfunctioning (parking) sensors
• Tracking Systems
• Corrupted or Malfunctioning parts
• Corrupted or un-updated Software
• Faulty systems and vehicle components

Be sure to contact Los Angeles Car Accident
Attorneys immediately after the accident, and
call the police. Take a copy of the police report
and use it at your own advantage. Your attorney
will use the police report and any other evidence
to try and determine liability. Once someone has
been identified as the one responsible for
causing the accident, that someone will have to
cover for all the damages from the car accident.
If the car malfunctioned or the software or
sensors failed, the car manufacturing company may
have to cover for the damages. Consult with best
Los Angeles personal injury attorneys and find
out what you can do to improve your odds of
obtaining a substantial settlement.
