Uber and Lyft accidents come with a layer of complexity that most car crash cases don’t. Who’s responsible — the driver, the rideshare company, or another motorist? Which insurance policy applies? Phoong Law cuts through the confusion and fights to make sure you’re fully compensated, whether you were a passenger, another driver, or a pedestrian struck by a rideshare vehicle. No fees unless we win.

Rideshare accidents can happen in an instant, but their impact lasts for months or even years. Understanding your rights and the legal process is the first step toward getting the compensation you deserve.
Understanding fault matters. In most states where Phoong Law operates, the driver who caused the accident is responsible for damages. Their insurance company should cover your medical bills, lost income, and other losses — but getting them to pay fairly is rarely straightforward.
Time limits apply. Every state has a statute of limitations for personal injury claims. In California, it’s generally 2 years. In Nevada, it’s also 2 years. In Texas, the deadline is likewise 2 years. Missing your deadline could mean losing your right to compensation entirely.
Common causes include distracted driving, speeding, driving under the influence, running red lights, and unsafe lane changes. No matter what caused your crash, if someone else’s negligence led to your injuries, you deserve compensation.
Injuries can be life-changing — whiplash, broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and internal bleeding are all common. Some injuries don’t show symptoms right away, which is why seeing a doctor immediately after a crash is critical.
Never accept the first offer from an insurance company. Adjusters are trained to settle fast and settle low. Before you sign anything, talk to a Phoong Law car accident attorney who can evaluate what your case is truly worth.

⚖️
Passengers, other drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians injured by rideshare vehicles can all pursue claims.
🚕
You were riding in an Uber or Lyft when the driver caused or was involved in a crash. The rideshare company’s $1M policy typically applies.
🚗
A rideshare driver hit your vehicle. Determining which insurance policy covers the damage depends on the driver’s app status at the time.
🚶
Rideshare drivers rushing to pickups or distracted by the app can strike pedestrians and cyclists. These victims have full rights to compensation.
📱
Checking the app for ride requests, navigation, or passenger info takes a driver’s eyes off the road. This distraction is a growing cause of rideshare accidents.
🔄
When a rideshare accident involves multiple vehicles, liability and insurance claims become layered. Identifying every responsible party is critical.
🛑
Some rideshare drivers flee the scene after an accident. App records, GPS data, and dashcam footage can help track them down.
