By offering practical and accessible options for people all around the world. However, as ridesharing platforms have grown in popularity, there have been numerous incidents involving rideshare applications.
More errors and legal actions are being carried out, from vehicle accidents to attacks on drivers or passengers. Please get in touch with the legal professionals at Ovadia Law Group to see how we will help if you or anybody you know has been injured in a ridesharing accident. Considering that the drivers for these businesses are independent contractors, such circumstances have plenty of complicated elements. The ride-sharing service providers’ have policies for insurance. There are still a lot of variables to take into account, such as the fact that the other motorist was driving their own car and had their own insurance, as well as your own insurance if your automobile was involved in the collision.
The Ovadia Law Group staff can clarify the insurance policies of these businesses and ascertain your eligibility. These businesses want to preserve themselves, but they also don’t want to risk significant financial decline or harm to their standing. Call our staff at 1-800-674-9396 or fill out our online form for a free consultation.
You don’t know the driver and aren’t aware of their previous behavioral patterns, therefore issues are not unusual following a collision. Although background checks are required for the applications, there are still some situations that may make a driver lose their temper. Although some passengers haven’t encountered any problems, you must still be cautious and assess the circumstances as the passenger before getting into the car.
Speak to the driver to verify that they are picking you up; the car should be identical to the one noted in the app, and the license plate should match as well. Have you observed any peculiar behavior or actions? Do they pose any inquiries that may be interpreted as unusual or strange? You might then refuse the transport and wait for another one to arrive, or you could ask a friend to pick you up from your position. While it’s okay to be scared, always remember to use caution—both for yourself and the driver. The driver, who has their back to the passenger, is unaware of what is going on in the car.
We offer free initial consultations to assess your case.
