Due to the prevalence of Uber and other ridesharing services, traditional taxis are becoming less common. Ordering an Uber ride through the app on your phone is a convenient and cost-effective way to quickly reach your destination, but it’s important to remember that accidents can still occur. If you’re injured while riding in an Uber vehicle, it raises the question of what legal options are available to you.

In case of an injury sustained during an Uber accident, there are several avenues to obtain compensation. Filing a claim against the driver may be possible if they were at fault, but this may not be the most viable option if their personal car insurance policy does not cover ridesharing. On the bright side, you may be eligible for compensation through Uber’s liability insurance and bodily injury policy, which covers up to $1 million in damages per accident.
If the accident was caused by another motorist, you may need to file a claim against their insurance provider or take legal action to obtain compensation. While it may be challenging to hold Uber accountable for its drivers’ actions due to their contractor status, in some instances, making a claim against the company may be feasible.
Uber’s Jump scooters, available on the company’s app, have caused safety concerns due to reported defects. For example, an Atlanta woman was thrown off an electric Jump scooter because of faulty brakes, resulting in severe neurological damage, head injuries requiring 15 stitches, and reconstructive facial surgery.
Moreover, in a highly anticipated safety review, Uber disclosed a disturbingly high number of sexual misconduct incidents. In 2020, there were 3,000 reports of sexual assault in the United States related to Uber, highlighting a significant safety issue for riders. The report categorized more than 20 types of sexual misconduct and detailed 235 allegations of rape and thousands of cases ranging from unwanted touching and kissing to attempted rape.
