How to Protect Your Legal Rights After a Crash Involving a Self-Driving Vehicle

If you’ve been hit by a self-driving vehicle in Dallas, Fort Worth, Atlanta, or Chicago, do you know who’s really looking out for you?

  • It’s not the insurance company.
  • It’s not the vehicle manufacturer.
  • And it’s not their team of lawyers.

After a crash involving a self-driving or autonomous vehicle, people start calling fast. Adjusters, company reps, and attorneys will keep the phone ringing. But before you respond to anyone, know this:

They are protecting themselves. We are here to protect you.

Let a trusted self-driving car wreck lawyer handle it. At 1-800TruckWreck, our team takes the weight off your shoulders, so you can focus on healing.

Who Is Liable After a Self-Driving Car Wreck?

Wondering who is at fault when a vehicle is in autonomous mode? You’re not alone. Accidents involving self-driving vehicles often involve multiple layers of liability. That could mean:

  • The vehicle manufacturer – if the tech or mechanical system failed.
  • The software company – if the vehicle made a faulty decision or miscalculated.
  • The driver or operator – if they misused the self-driving features or failed to respond.

Or a combination of all of the above

It takes a skilled self-driving car wreck lawyer to investigate these cases and hold the right people accountable—especially in cities like Dallas, Fort Worth, Atlanta, and Chicago, where the laws are constantly evolving.

Know the Name: Waymo Is Driving the Change

If you've heard talk about “Uber’s self-driving cars,” here's the real story:

Waymo, owned by Google’s parent company, is the one building the driverless tech.

In Atlanta, Waymo vehicles are already picking up passengers through the Uber app. These are fully autonomous cars with no driver behind the wheel.

And now, Waymo is bringing that same tech to Dallas in 2026.

Let Our Legal Team Handle the Calls, the Paperwork, and the Pressure

Tired of your phone ringing after the wreck? You do not have to talk to anyone—not the insurance company, not the carmaker’s legal team, not opposing attorneys. Our firm handles every conversation for you. Once you call us, we step in and take over:

  • All communication with insurance adjusters.
  • All legal requests from manufacturers and their lawyers.

Do You Need a Self-Driving Car Accident Attorney?

Can you really go up against a tech company or major automaker on your own?

Can you afford to make a mistake that costs you your settlement?

A self-driving vehicle crash is not a typical car wreck. These cases involve complex technology, multiple parties, and high-stakes negotiations. That is why it is critical to hire an autonomous vehicle accident attorney who knows how to win these battles.

At 1-800TruckWreck, we have helped people in Texas, Georgia, and Illinois stand up to powerful companies—and we are ready to fight for you too.

What Can You Recover After a Self-Driving Car Wreck?

Depending on your injuries and the circumstances of the wreck, you may be entitled to:

  • Payment for all medical bills, including future care.
  • Lost income and reduced ability to work.
  • Compensation for pain, suffering, and emotional distress.
  • Vehicle repairs or replacement.
  • Support for permanent disability or long-term recovery.

Our team will evaluate your case and fight for the full amount you are owed—nothing less.
