Common Causes of Self-Driving Car Accidents

Every day, more autonomous cars hit the road. When they work as they are designed to, self-driving cars can be incredibly safe and convenient. However, an equipment failure, manufacturing defect, or human error can result in serious and potentially deadly accidents.Ā 

The owners of these vehicles can over-rely on the technologies that they contain, which can mean that they are not prepared to correct any errors that the software makes. It is important to understand the causes of self-driving car accidents. Doing so may help you or your loved one avoid being injured.

As self-driving vehicles become increasingly common on public roadways, crashes involving these cars are also becoming more common. Accidents involving these complex machines can occur at virtually any time. Some common causes of self-driving vehicle crashes include:

  • Drunk drivers
  • Over-reliance on the vehicleā€™s capabilities
  • Software errors
  • Driver who has altered the vehicleā€™s safety equipment
  • Vehicle that miscalculates speed or makes inappropriate maneuvers
  • Failure of the manufacturer to address glaring safety issues
