Pressure ulcers—commonly referred to as bedsores—are among the most serious and revealing indicators of neglect in nursing homes and assisted living facilities. These painful injuries do not appear suddenly or without warning. In most cases, pressure ulcers develop gradually when residents are left in the same position for extended periods without proper monitoring, repositioning, or basic care. When a resident develops a bedsore, it often signals a broader failure by the facility to meet its fundamental obligations to protect vulnerable residents.

However, this technological advancement has also led to a surge in litigation as accidents involving autonomous vehicles become more frequent. New questions have also arisen. Who is responsible when a self-driving car is involved in a wreck? The vehicle owner, the manufacturer or the software developer?
