Uber and Lyft have revolutionized transportation, but rideshare accidents are on the rise. Passengers, drivers, and pedestrians can suffer severe injuries due to negligence, reckless driving, or inadequate insurance coverage.

•Common Causes of Rideshare Accidents
✔ Distracted Driving – Uber/Lyft drivers often use GPS or manage ride requests, leading to delayed reactions on the road.
✔ Fatigue – Long shifts and multiple rides in one day contribute to driver exhaustion, impairing judgment.
✔ Unqualified Drivers – Some rideshare companies fail to conduct proper background checks, allowing inexperienced or reckless drivers on the road.
✔ Poor Vehicle Maintenance – Many drivers use older vehicles that are not properly maintained, increasing accident risks.
