What If Another Driver Causes the Accident with My Uber in Miramar?
We Don’t Take “Low” for an Answer!
Ridesharing has transformed transportation in Miramar, Florida, but accidents involving Uber vehicles remain a common hazard, especially on busy roads like Miramar Parkway or Pembroke Road. If you’re a passenger in an Uber and another driver causes the crash, understanding your rights under Florida law is crucial. At Kaiser Romanello Accident and Injury Attorneys, we’ve helped numerous Miramar residents navigate these complex scenarios to secure the compensation they deserve.
Understanding Liability in Third-Party Uber Accidents
In Florida’s no-fault system, your initial medical costs (up to $10,000) are typically covered by Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance, regardless of fault. However, when another driver is responsible for the accident, liability shifts. The at-fault driver’s insurance should cover damages beyond PIP, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. If their coverage is insufficient, Uber’s $1 million uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM) policy can activate for passengers during an active ride.
Miramar-specific factors play a role: Local traffic congestion near shopping districts like The Shops at Pembroke Gardens increases rear-end collisions involving rideshares. You must report the accident to the Miramar Police Department within 10 days to preserve your claim, and seeking medical attention within 14 days is essential for full PIP eligibility. Delays can weaken your case, especially if the other driver disputes fault.
Steps to Take After the Accident
Document Everything
Gather photos, witness statements, and the Uber app’s trip details.
Avoid Direct Communication
Don’t speak with the other driver’s insurer or Uber without legal advice—they may minimize your claim.
File Claims Promptly
In Broward County, statutes of limitations (typically 2 years for personal injury) apply, but early action strengthens evidence.
Our firm has a track record of holding negligent drivers and rideshare companies accountable, often negotiating settlements that cover long-term injuries like whiplash or fractures common in these crashes.
