Automobile Manufacturers May Be Liable For Defective Parts
With so many cars on the road, accidents are bound to happen. Bad weather, drunk drivers, and drivers texting behind the wheel of a car are only a few of the reasons why accidents happen so frequently.
With so much beyond a driver’s control, many consumers now look to buy the safest car they can find. They consult car magazines and the internet for crash-test safety reviews, and they ask their local mechanic for recommendations based on performance, reliability, and, perhaps more than ever, safety.
Over the years, cars have become safer in many ways. After all, it was not very long ago that cars were not equipped with airbags, and some of those cars are still on the road today. To test for safety, car companies and trade groups conduct crash tests, and the results are often published.
