Injured In an Uber Accident When Your Driver Did Nothing Wrong

Uber drivers can be victims of other drivers’ negligence too. Not every accident involving an Uber rideshare can be attributed to the Uber driver’s error. There seems to be a trend to blame the rideshare driver for any accident that they’re involved in. Perhaps, because Uber is a global company with millions of drivers, people may assume their drivers are less careful or more reckless.

If you were injured in an Uber accident in which another driver’s negligence caused the crash, The Ruth Law Team has extensive experience helping people hold the liable party responsible. Your Uber driver may be the best witness to support your description of events leading up to the accident and how the other driver acted negligently.

Your Uber vehicle may be rear-ended at a traffic light or crashed into by a car going through a red light. And while Uber may not be liable for your injuries, they may be looked to in the event the other driver is uninsured or underinsured. Uber’s insurance coverage may exceed what policies are otherwise available.

These issues need to be explored by Uber accident lawyers with expertise in cases where a victim’s injuries were not necessarily the Uber driver’s fault. 

The Ruth Law Team Uber accident lawyer will sort out the facts and seek the most available compensation to which you and your family are entitled.
