Rideshare Accidents
Rideshare Accidents in Austin, TX
Because ridesharing companies have few regulations, accidents involving them (either as a passenger or as an innocent bystander) are complicated. Rideshare companies work to remove themselves from liability after accidents involving their drivers. Unlike Taxi companies, in Texas rideshare drivers need only a driver’s license and minimal automobile insurance to operate under the rideshare label; no fingerprinting, no background check, no certified licensing programs, no training or experience in transporting people, and no extensive automobile insurance is necessary. Because there are few regulations, when confronted with litigation, parent companies like Uber and Lyft will attempt to claim they only facilitate fares and are not responsible for their driver’s actions.
It is important to contact an experienced personal injury lawyer to determine if a rideshare company can be proved liable. If you or a loved one has been involved in an accident involving a vehicle used in a ridesharing service, contact the Law Office Of Ramiro Lopez PLLC.
