U.S. motorists don’t fully trust self-driving technology, according to a report by Good Guys Injury Law.
Public sentiment toward self-driving cars remains skeptical, the data showed, with only 25% of people expressing positive views, while 40% distrust the technology and 35% remain neutral. Key concerns for drivers include technology failures, unpredictable AI decision-making, legal liability and cybersecurity risks.
“The contrast between brand perception and safety rankings highlights an important paradox in the self-driving car market,” said a spokesperson from Good Guys Injury Law. “While luxury brands enjoy strong consumer enthusiasm, safety concerns remain a significant hurdle for widespread adoption. Brands with balanced performance across both metrics suggest that consumers are increasingly looking for reliability over innovation.”
