Companies such as Uber & Lyft have pioneered the ridesharing industry over the last 10 years and have become an extremely popular way to get around town. They give you a safe way to travel if you are intoxicated and have helped keep millions of drunk drivers off the roads, but they are not immune from getting into accidents just like any other can. Whether you’ve been in an Uber/Lyft vehicle and gotten injured in an accident or were hit by a rideshare driver, our Colorado Springs rideshare accident attorneys are here to help you get compensation for your injuries so you can get back to life before the accident.
The most important thing to do after getting into an accident as a passenger in an Uber or Lyft is to get yourself to safety first and foremost. If you are on the side of the highway, make sure you get away from the car (safely) and away from traffic. Stopped cars on the highway can cause other drivers to stop unexpectedly and this causes accidents as well as cars swerving to miss the stopped cars so always get yourself as far from the road as you can to avoid getting hit after the accident has happened.
Driving for Uber/Lyft can be lucrative for anyone needing some extra income, but it also comes with the risk of getting into an accident which can be very costly in the long run. The laws surrounding Uber/Lyft accidents as a driver have been changed many times due to the rideshare companies trying to classify drivers as independent contractors instead of employees, so it is crucial that you hire an attorney that is familiar with these types of accidents and the rideshare companies policies so you can get the best results from your claims. You can hold Uber/Lyft accountable for accidents while driving for them, but there are a lot of details that have to be considered before an accurate outcome of your claim can be given so make sure to reach out to our personal injury lawyers today for a free consultation.
Offline: If the rideshare driver is logged off of the rideshare app and not in the process of waiting for a ride to come through and haven’t yet accepted a ride, then there is no coverage from Uber/Lyft. The only coverage you have at this point is whatever your personal auto insurance coverage provides, just like any other time you are driving your vehicle.
