    Autonomous Vehicle Accidents: Who Is Held Liable?

    September 20, 2018 /

    Distracted driving kills 3,400+ people in the United States annually. Over a million accidents occur every year, and autonomous vehicles will, hopefully, stop many of these accidents, saving tens of thousands of people per year. But what happens when an autonomous vehicle is involved in an accident? Who is liable for the accident? “When it comes to autonomous vehicles, the existence of an anomaly may be more difficult to identify given the catastrophic nature of automobile accidents. It may be difficult for a plaintiff who’s been injured by an autonomous vehicle to prove the existence of a manufacturing flaw if the evidence is destroyed at the scene,” writes Ankin Law…

    Referrals are a strong way to market a business, and organic referrals are something that every business owner tries to achieve. But when you’re the one that calls a service or business, it means that you want to do business with a specific company. The issue is that there are referral services that will not provide the service that they promise. Attorney referral services are one of the services where a “bait and switch” occurs. Let’s assume that you’ve been injured while walking in Home Depot. Perhaps you tripped over a box that was left in the middle of an aisle, and the company was at fault because workers neglected…
