Jonesboro Uber Accidents
Rideshare Collision Lawyers Serving People Injured in Jonesboro
With the rise of Uber and other rideshare companies, getting to where you need to go has never been easier or more convenient. With the Uber app on your smartphone, you can request an Uber driver in the area to pick you up and take you where you need to go. It is convenient, and it is simple. However, as with any other type of transportation on the road, there is the possibility that you could be involved in a collision with another vehicle while you are an Uber passenger. If you have been injured in an Uber accident, you should contact one of the Jonesboro Uber accident attorneys of Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz to discuss your case. We are a large regional personal injury law firm that has been serving the South for more than 30 years. With over 30 lawyers and more than 120 staff members, we have the resources and experience necessary to help you pursue compensation for your injuries and losses.
Pursuing Compensation After an Uber Accident
Let’s say you are riding in an Uber in Craighead County near Arkansas State University, located at 2105 Aggie Road, Jonesboro, Arkansas 72401. As you are headed toward your destination, your Uber driver fails to yield the right of way to another vehicle and ends up ramming into said vehicle. You sustain significant injuries as a result of the collision. For your bodily injury, in this scenario, Uber provides up to $1 million in liability coverage; this is because you were injured in an accident while the driver was transporting a passenger. This level of coverage goes into effect once an Uber driver accepts a ride from a passenger.
What is the level of coverage if you are hit by an Uber driver whose app is on but he has not accepted a passenger? In such a case, lower coverage limits would be in effect. However, if you are hit by an Uber driver when their app is off, the personal auto insurance coverage of the Uber driver would be in place. To help you navigate through the complexities of the legal process, you should retain an Uber accident attorney in the Jonesboro area with the rideshare knowledge needed to adequately assist you.
If you were riding in an Uber near Jonesboro Municipal Airport – located at 3901 Lindbergh Drive, Jonesboro, Arkansas 72401 – and got rear-ended by another driver, for example, the situation could play out a little differently. With the other driver being the at-fault driver, you could possibly hold him or her liable for your injuries. Even if the at-fault driver is uninsured, your losses would be covered up to $1 million by Uber’s uninsured motorist coverage.
