I’m an Uber driver and another vehicle crashed into my car. What do I do?
If you are an Uber driver who was seriously injured due to someone else’s negligence, then you should protect your rights and contact one of our experienced New Jersey auto accident lawyers to help you. As an Uber driver, you are not considered an employee of Uber; rather you are considered an independent contractor under the law. Therefore, if you are injured in an accident, you do not have the ability to make a claim for workers’ compensation benefits against Uber.
As with any auto accident case, you would be able to file a lawsuit against the negligent driver in order to recover compensation for your unpaid medical bills, property damage, lost wages and compensation for your pain and suffering. Further, if you have the proper insurance on your own vehicle, then you can seek compensation from that insurance company if the other driver does not have insurance or if their insurance is not enough to cover the extent of your injuries. The best practice is to first contact an experienced Uber accident lawyer to know what rights you have.
