San Francisco & Oakland Rideshare Accident Attorneys
Rideshare providers such as Uber, Lyft, and Sidecar provide convenient and reasonably priced personal transportation services easily accessed through smartphone apps. However, the rapid expansion of these services in Oakland and throughout the Bay Area raises important questions.
Are the operators of rideshare vehicles safe drivers? Do they have adequate liability insurance? Is the driver of the rideshare vehicle you are going to use today impaired by alcohol or drugs? As a passenger in a rideshare vehicle, will you be able to obtain compensation in the event of an accident? What if your car is struck by a rideshare vehicle?
These are not usually issues that arise in accident cases involving licensed taxis. But if you were injured by a rideshare vehicle driver, you may face significant obstacles when seeking compensation. You should speak with an experienced Oakland personal injury attorney concerning your case.
