Causes of Uber/Lyft Accidents in Tampa

Rideshare options Uber and Lyft are popular in Tampa and the surrounding areas. According to the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles Division, with over 33,000 accidents in Tampa each year, almost 600 of those accidents result in fatalities, and with Uber and Lyft drivers being no more qualified than the average driver on the road, it’s easy to see how rideshare drivers get in just as may accidents as other drivers.

All rideshare drivers do is meet the qualifications of the rideshare companies, download the app, make sure they have the proper insurance, and begin driving. Studies of ridesharing accidents have shown that the most common causes of these accidents that injure passengers include:

Who Is at Fault for a Tampa Uber/Lyft Accident?

Uber and Lyft accidents become convoluted when it is time to determine liability, or, who is at fault. Obviously, it could be as simple as only the rideshare driver. Yet, if another vehicle caused the wreck, there could be another party. If there was a faulty vehicle part that failed on the vehicle, there could be another party to include.

Determining liability is best left to an experienced Tampa Uber or Lyft accident attorney who can help you gather evidence and assist you with your claim.

Will the Insurance Company Treat You Fairly?

While you do have the option to handle your own claim, it’s imperative that you keep in mind that there could be more than one insurance company to deal with. The driver will likely have their own insurance policy as the rideshare company requires. Then, the rideshare company has its insurance policy. Additionally, if another driver happened to be involved in the accident, you’ll have a third insurance company.

This situation can easily become complicated and confusing, and insurance companies may send you in circles without proper legal representation, which is why it is necessary to have a Tampa Uber/Lyft accident attorney on your side.
