Using UBER during Spring Break

The Perazzo Law Firm 

IF YOU’RE GOING TO DRINK OR ARE ALREADY DRUNK, DO NOT OPERATE A MOTOR VEHICLE. USE A RIDESHARE SERVICE INSTEAD!

You can use Uber when you need a ride to a destination and do not have access to your own car or do not want to drive. Uber is a ride-sharing service that connects you with a driver who can pick you up and take you to your desired location. You can use the Uber app on your smartphone to request a ride, track the driver’s location, and pay for the ride through the app.

Uber is a convenient option when you are traveling to a new place and are unfamiliar with the area. It is also a good option when you are going out for the night and don’t want to worry about driving after drinking alcohol. In addition, Uber can be useful when you are in a hurry and need to get to your destination quickly.

However, it is important to note that Uber may not be the best option in all situations. For example, if you are traveling with a large group of people or have a lot of luggage, you may need a bigger vehicle than what Uber offers. Similarly, if you are traveling long distances, it may be more cost-effective to rent a car or take public transportation.

Overall, Uber is a convenient and reliable option when you need a ride to a destination and want to avoid driving or taking public transportation. It can help you save time and avoid the stress of navigating unfamiliar roads or dealing with traffic.


USING UBER SAFELY

Like any form of transportation, accidents can happen when using Uber. However, Uber has taken measures to ensure the safety of its riders and drivers.

In the event of an accident, Uber has a $1 million liability insurance policy that covers its drivers and riders. This means that if you are a passenger in an Uber and are injured in an accident, you may be able to receive compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

In addition to the insurance policy, Uber has implemented safety features to help prevent accidents. For example, drivers must pass a background check and have a safe driving record to be approved to drive for Uber. Uber also has a rating system that allows riders to rate their drivers, and drivers to rate their riders. This helps ensure that only safe and responsible drivers are allowed to drive for Uber.

If you are involved in an accident while using Uber, it is important to seek medical attention if you are injured. You should also report the accident to Uber through the app, and take photos of the accident scene if possible. You may also want to contact a personal injury lawyer who can help you understand your rights and options for compensation.

Overall, while accidents can happen when using Uber, the company has taken measures to ensure the safety of its riders and drivers. In the event of an accident, Uber has insurance and safety features in place to help protect its users.
