Determining Fault in a Self-Driving Car Accident
Washington is an “at-fault” auto insurance state, which means you can take legal action directly against the at-fault party or parties who are responsible for your injuries. In autonomous vehicle cases, liable parties can include one or more of the following:
- The human driver
- The vehicle manufacturer
- The software company
- A maintenance provider
- Insurance companies for these parties
Our self-driving car accident lawyers in Seattle will conduct a detailed investigation to determine how the accident occurred and which parties can be held legally responsible for all of your economic and non-economic damages.
How Long Do I Have To File an Autonomous Vehicle Accident Claim in Washington?
Under Washington’s statute of limitations, you generally have three years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Waiting too long can prevent you from recovering any damages altogether, so it’s critical to take action on time.
There are exceptions that can change this time limit, but only in certain circumstances. Some cases may require additional time for investigation as well, so it’s best to contact an attorney as soon as possible after the crash.
