IRVINE LYFT & UBER ACCIDENT ATTORNEYS
Irvine Rideshare Car Accident Attorneys
If you or a member of your family has been injured in an accident involving an Uber or Lyft driver, you can seek financial compensation for your medical expenses, ongoing rehabilitation, and lost income. The ridesharing era has certainly made getting around in Irvine much less of a hassle. Drinking and driving has decreased thanks in part to ridesharing's surge in popularity. It has also provided many people with an additional income source in the gig economy of today.
However, as the ridesharing industry grows, so do the number of collisions involving Uber and Lyft drivers. Worse yet, insurance companies are often unaware the insured party has been using their vehicle for ridesharing. This means they might be unwilling to fully compensate victims.
Since ridesharing is so new, the legal waters when it comes to Lyft and Uber car crashes are murky at best.
This is why you’ll need the Irvine Lyft and Uber accident attorneys at M.R. Parker Law, PC in your corner. Uber and Lyft are huge publicly-traded companies pulling in billions of dollars. Unlike many drivers carrying only state minimum liability coverage of $15,000 for injury or death on their auto policy, Uber and Lyft drivers have a $1 million insurance policy. But rideshare companies will look at varying details like whether or not their driver was signed into the app and accepting rides at the time of the accident/incident occurred.
Considering how much liability coverage Lyft and Uber drivers carry, anyone injured in a collision with a ridesharing driver might be entitled to more compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and pain, suffering and emotional trauma resulting from the wreck. This includes injured passengers in a rideshare car, regardless of whether their driver was or wasn’t at-fault.
The car accident lawyers at M.R.Parker Law, PC specialize in Lyft and Uber accidents. Contact us today for a free consultation with one of our Lyft/Uber accident attorneys in Irvine.

DISTRACTED DRIVING LAWYERS IN IRVINE
Texting While Driving Accidents
A major cause of car accidents is distracted driving. Accidents brought on by distracted driving range from very serious - it is the number one cause of highway fatalities and wrongful death lawsuits - to minor rear-end accidents or fender-benders.
According to studies, sending or receiving a tex message raises the risk of a car crash by as much as 25 times.
Studies have also concluded that the average driver takes their eyes off the road for 4.6 seconds to send or read a text message. When driving 55 miles per hour, that equates to driving the length of a football field with your eyes covered.
In California, it's illegal for someone operating a motor vehicle to use their cell phones to make a call, talk without a hands-free setup, and read or type out a text message while driving.
Although texting while driving is what all of us instantly think of when distracted driving is mentioned, there are other common types of distracted driving still prevalent. These include: following the directions on an electronic navigation system like GPS or Google Maps, using a handheld cellphone, fiddling around with a radio or CD player, doing makeup, vaping or smoking, taking selfies or recording a video. and eating while driving.
If you've been hurt in an accident with a distracted driver, M.R. Parker Law, PC can help get you compensated for any expenses and pain or suffering incurred.

Were you or someone you love hit by a drunk driver in Irvine? The aftermath of this this terrible act of negligence and reckless behavior is devastating.
About one-third of fatalities on U.S. highways and roads are brought on by drunk driving. Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol isn’t just illegal, it’s a moral breach of conduct that risks the lives of others. A driver under the influence has trouble focusing, muscle impairment, problems with coordination, mental confusion, a lack of alertness, and a slowed reaction time.
Someone who survives being hit by a drunk driver often has very bad injuries to deal with. This includes both bodily injury and emotional trauma or mental distress.
Victims of drunk driving accidents can pursue financial compensation. Not only can they seek standard compensation – things like medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering – but punitive damages might also be paid out. Judges and jurors can be hard on drunk drivers and the settlement amount in DUI cases can be very significant.

Irvine High Speed Collision Attorney
Driving over the speed limit – or driving too fast for road conditions – is second behind distracted driving as the leading cause of most auto crashes.
Speeding increases the force of impact. The faster you're traveling at the time of the collision, the greater the force of the collision. This usually means more serious injuries and more fatalities. Speed also contributes to much more property damage.
When you get behind the wheel of a car you're taking a leap of faith. You're trusting those you're sharing the road with. You're trusting that they are responsible drivers and put forth enough reasonable care to avoid a wreck. A driver that speeds neglects this responsibility and is putting everyone at risk - especially pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists.
