You’re riding in the back of an Uber in Spartanburg, maybe heading to WestGate Mall or being dropped off at a friend’s house on John B. White Sr. Boulevard. You’re half-checking your phone, half-watching the city pass by, when suddenly the car jolts sideways. A truck failed to yield at an intersection. You feel the impact before you hear it.
The side of the Uber crumples. You’re thrown against the door. A window shatters. Horns are blaring, and the Uber driver is shouting, trying to move the car off the road. You’re dazed, hurting, and unsure what just happened—or what comes next.
Moments later, police arrive, followed by an ambulance. As the chaos settles, the reality hits: you’ve been in an accident while riding as a passenger. Now you're left with pain, medical bills, and a growing list of questions. Who’s at fault? Does Uber cover this? And how are you supposed to get through all of this alone?
At the Law Office of Tyler Rody, we help people in Spartanburg who’ve been injured in rideshare accidents figure out their next step. If you were hurt in an Uber crash, we’re here to guide you through the legal process and fight for the compensation you deserve.
Uber accidents often involve more than one vehicle and more than one potential party at fault. That can make determining liability more complicated than in a typical car crash. Depending on the situation, the following parties may be responsible:
The Uber driver: If they were distracted, speeding, or driving recklessly, they may be directly liable.
Another driver: If someone else caused the collision, their insurance may need to cover your injuries.
Uber: The company provides insurance coverage in some situations, depending on what the driver was doing at the time of the crash.
Third parties: In rare cases, liability may fall on a maintenance company, vehicle manufacturer, or even a government agency if road conditions contributed to the accident.
The key question is whether the Uber driver was logged into the app, waiting for a ride request, on the way to pick someone up, or actively transporting a passenger. Each of those stages triggers a different level of insurance coverage—and different legal responsibilities.
