Should carmakers be liable when an autonomous car crashes?
On behalf of Rosenbaum & Rosenbaum, P.C. posted in Products Liability on Monday, November 21, 2016.
At first blush, it seems that defects in autonomous cars should be treated as any other defect, under products liability. In a products liability suit, the manufacturer, supplier, retailer or seller bears responsibility once the plaintiff establishes that the product was defective and that defect caused her injury.
