Uber has become so popular in the country, and indeed, around the world that it is now possible to find an Uber driver in every other vehicle on the road. This has meant that you are more likely than ever before to get involved in an accident with an Uber driver. Accidents can range in severity from soft tissue injuries to catastrophic injuries such as spinal cord injuries, and they can set you back in life in more ways than one.

Uber is a billion dollar entity that owes its success to the popularity and massive growth of Smartphone technology. Almost everyone owns or has used a Smartphone in one way or another. An Uber app lets you simply call up a ride wherever, and whenever. What’s more, Uber has a variety of vehicles depending on your price point, and drivers are rated by clients, making it easier to find someone with a great track record instantly. However, no amount of technology can take away the negligence that one can be exposed to by an errant Uber driver that doesn’t obey traffic rules or takes risks on the roads in order to make more money by carrying more people on any given day.
Here are the first things you should do after getting hit by an Uber driver:
- Get the driver’s contact information and their insurance

- Seek medical attention as documenting injuries will play a major role in your claim
- File a police report at the scene

It is important to note that any accident usually has a human negligence component. That is to say, Uber accidents simply aren’t just “accidents”: over 90 percent of the time, someone wasn’t doing what they were meant to be doing, resulting in accident. This gives you the opportunity to file a civil suit to recover money damages for things such as pain and suffering, lost wages, property damage, cost of repairing your vehicle, past and future medical bills, loss of wage earning capacity, and so much more.
