Ride-Share Accidents

Ridesharing services like Uber and Lyft have revolutionized the way we travel, offering an unparalleled level of convenience and accessibility. With just a few taps on your smartphone, you can summon a ride to your doorstep and be on your way to any destination. This ease and efficiency have made ridesharing a favored choice for millions worldwide. However, with its growing popularity, the potential for accidents and injuries has also increased. At the Law Office of Beth Sibley, PLLC, we understand the complexities involved in rideshare accidents. We are dedicated to holding negligent parties accountable when you’re injured.

Understanding Rideshare Accidents

Legal Challenges of Determining Fault

Rideshare accidents present unique legal challenges, particularly when it comes to establishing liability. Unlike traditional car accidents, ridesharing incidents involve multiple parties, including the rideshare company, the driver and potentially other motorists. Determining who is at fault can be intricate, often requiring thorough investigation and witness testimony. Our experienced legal team is adept at navigating these complexities to build a strong case on your behalf.

Common Causes of Rideshare Accidents

Accidents involving rideshare vehicles can occur for various reasons, often tied to the nature of the service itself. Common causes include:

• Distracted Driving: Rideshare drivers often multitask by using navigation apps while driving, which can lead to distraction.
• Fatigue: Many drivers work long hours or multiple jobs, increasing the risk of fatigue-related accidents.
• Speeding and Traffic Violations: To maximize earnings, some drivers may exceed speed limits or disregard traffic signals.
• Inexperience: Drivers unfamiliar with certain areas may make navigation errors, increasing accident risks.

Our firm is committed to thoroughly investigating the causes of your accident to hold all negligent parties accountable.

Types of Injuries and Compensation

Rideshare accidents can result in a wide range of injuries, from minor to catastrophic. Common injuries include spinal cord damage, broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, and psychological trauma. These injuries often require significant medical treatment and can impact your ability to work, affecting your financial stability.
