Common Causes of Uber and Lyft Accidents

Warren and Griffin specialize in handling rideshare accidents that are often the result of, but not limited to:

Speeding
Driving under the influence and/or impaired driving
Unruly passenger behavior
Vehicle maintenance issues such as flat tires, malfunctioning brakes and more
Distracted driving due to focusing on the rideshare app or GPS
Reckless driving
Navigating unfamiliar roads
Driver fatigue
Weather-related incidents
Unsafe pick-up and drop-off practices

Unique Legal Challenges of Uber and Lyft Accidents

Distinctive aspects of rideshare cases include:

Insurance Coverage: Lyft and Uber’s insurance policies differ based on the driver’s shift. Considerations include if the app was off, if the app was on but no passenger had been accepted or if the app was on and passengers were in the car. If your rideshare vehicle is hit by another driver while you are a passenger, you may be able to collect damages from the other driver’s insurance company.
Liability Complexities: The determination of liability can be tricky because Uber and Lyft accidents often involve multiple parties including the driver, drivers of other vehicles, passengers, the rideshare company, pedestrians and/or bicyclists. It’s important for anyone involved in an accident to gather evidence at the scene to help with this determination.
Unique Legal Status: Uber and Lyft drivers are not employees of their companies. Instead, they are classified as independent contractors. Their employment status can affect the company’s liability for the driver’s actions.
Nature of Services: The blurred lines between personal, business, commercial and professional activities can contribute to legal challenges.
Jurisdiction Complexities: There may be jurisdiction complications if the accident occurred across state, country or international borders.

Our experienced Uber and Lyft accident lawyers use a comprehensive approach to investigate the details of your case and present the best next steps.
