Accident Attorney

The ridesharing industry continues to grow to provide alternative and often more affordable taxi services. Ride-sharing companies, such as Uber and Lyft, use Smartphone technology to provide riders with streamline access to their services. However, this streamlined business model places extreme pressure on rideshare drivers to complete their fares quickly to make more money. Job pressure and distractions from cell phones and GPS devices often lead to tragic accidents.

Causes of Ridesharing Accidents

Uber and Lyft drivers can place you at great risk and cause a serious accident by not paying attention to the road. Distractions, such as cellphones, following GPS devices for directions, and talking to passengers, can easily cause an accident. You should note the exact distraction that may have contributed to your rideshare accident.

Other common causes of rideshare collisions include:

• Speeding
• Reckless driving
• Alcohol or drug-impaired driving
• Distracted driving
• Lack of proper training
