Injured in a Rideshare Provider
With the surge of ride-sharing services in the Redondo Beach, CA area, you may not be the one driving when an accident occurs; but you still may be injured.While contacting Uber®, Lyft®, or any other type of ride share provider may be simple and easy, it isn't always safe. And, since you are not in command of the vehicle, you also aren't in control of your circumstances. You would expect that as "professional" drivers, the people behind the wheel of ride-sharing services would have exceptional skills that complement their ability to get you to your desired destination safely, but regretfully that is not always the case. Studies show that since 2011 ride-sharing companies have increased traffic deaths in the US by 2%-3% (University of Chicago and Rice University), therefore you are at greater risk today than before these services existed.So what should you do if you are involved in a traffic accident while a paying passenger in a "commercial" vehicle driven as part of a ride-hailing? Call us today at (877) 278-6890. This is especially true as the legal landscape of these companies continues to develop; laws may vary across state lines and our professionals know the terrain.

Limousines and Taxi
Using the services of a traditional cab or limousine service is a little different. Because they have been around for awhile, the legal complexities and procedures are much more clear. While ride share services like Uber® and Lyft® are relatively new, taxis and limousines have been around since before cars were motorized! The primary difference between dealing with Uber® and Lyft® or a taxi/limousine service is the underlying company; Uber® and Lyft® are nationwide, while taxi and limousine services are usually locally owned.Because taxis and limos are typically corporately/company owned, they may be regulated even more stringently and subject to greater standards of care. Our team of experienced legal representatives will ensure that you receive the care and attention your individual case demands and that you won't get "bullied" by a large transportation company. Call Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC today for a FREE CONSULTATION.It goes without saying that getting in a car accident involving a minicab or chauffeur driven car - even if you are in a different vehicle - will also call for the expertise of a knowledgeable lawyer.

Rental-car Accidents
If you are involved in a major accident while operating a rental car, you will definitely have to deal with extra complications not present in the case of an accident with your own car or truck.Along with the stress of the accident, any injuries, any property damage, and the physical and emotional well-being of all persons involved in the actual accident, having to contend with a corporate entity like a rental car company adds an additional layer of complication to your situation. Factors like:
- Determining responsibility - Who is at fault and to what degree?
- Insurance coverage - Did you buy extra insurance from the rental-car business? What does your private insurance protection provide? Who pays first?
In short, while being part of an automobile accident is stressful enough, the additional duty of dealing with the rental car company can be daunting.

Rear-End Accidents
Even if you do everything the right way, you can still be involved in a crash. One of the most common types of accidents are rear-end crashes and make up 29% of all accidents (NHTSA, 2017)So if your motor vehicle is stopped at a stop sign or crossroad (you are "at rest") and the car behind you fails to stop ("an object in motion"), your vehicle will be acted upon by that "unbalanced force" and will be propelled forward when contact is made. Not only will this damage your vehicle, but since you are also "at rest" inside the vehicle, the "unbalanced force" will also act on your body like it does your car, creating a "whiplash" effect that can cause you extreme trauma.The more rapidly the vehicle that hits you is going, the more powerful the "unbalanced force" will be, and the more significant the harm to you and your vehicle. It doesn't matter, however, if the vehicle that hits you is moving fast or slow, there will be damages, and you need to contact us to assess that damage and your potential remedies.You need an advocate who will fight for you and your rights. You need Law Offices of John C. Ye, APLC. Call us at (877) 278-6890 to receive the Redondo Beach, CA area's best legal representation.
