More and More Uber Accidents Damage Lives
You take an Uber for convenience and to be safe — not to end up hurt. However, for two rideshare passengers in Arizona, their injuries tell a much different story.
The two passengers were injured — with one in critical condition — after their vehicle collided with another in an apparent effort to beat a yellow light. In December 2024, three people were injured when a speeding Uber driver caused a chain-reaction accident with two other vehicles traveling in Macomb County, Michigan.
Philadelphia has also seen its own share of devastating Uber incidents. In August 2024, a man was killed when his Uber driver made an illegal turn on Kelly Drive. Then, on New Year’s Eve, a 28-year old woman lost her life after her Uber collided with a parked tractor-trailer on Ogontz Avenue.
Sadly, these cases are not isolated.
Despite rideshares like Lyft and Uber being marketed for safety, accidents like these highlight a growing concern within the industry. In fact, the University of Illinois Chicago found that one-third of the rideshare drivers they surveyed were involved in a crash while on the clock.
