These are the most common types of crashes involving Ubers that we see across the Bronx — whether you were a passenger, driver, or pedestrian.
Whether you were in the car, walking nearby, or hit while driving, it’s important to document the crash scene and confirm whether the driver was working for Uber at the time.
Whether you were a passenger, pedestrian, or hit by an Uber, these steps help protect your rights and set your case up properly — even if you didn’t go to the hospital right away.
Rideshare cases can get complicated fast. The earlier you document and preserve the details, the easier it is to prove what happened.
Responsibility in an Uber crash depends on how the accident happened — and whether the rideshare driver was actively working at the time.
Uber cases are unique — multiple parties may share fault. Even if the police blamed you, it's worth having the incident reviewed by someone who handles rideshare cases every day.
Many Bronx Uber crash victims start their medical care at a local urgent care clinic. If you went to CityMD, DocGo, or any walk-in center after your accident — we’ve built a full resource explaining how those records help support your case.

🗺️ Located near the 6 train Parkchester station — right between Starbucks and Capital One.
These are some of the most common locations where clients report getting injured in accidents involving Ubers — as riders, pedestrians, or other drivers.
These locations are based on real case reports and patterns we’ve seen across the Bronx. If you were injured near one of these areas, document the scene and vehicle details — especially if it involved an Uber or Lyft.
Every Bronx Uber accident is different — but the right legal strategy can make a huge difference in what you walk away with. Watch this video to learn what factors impact the value of your case.
Whether you were riding in an Uber or hit by one, nearby medical centers and city resources can help you document your injuries and protect your rights. Learn more about urgent care options near the Bronx.

“Uber’s insurance rep told me I didn’t qualify. MyBronxLawyer took the case, handled everything, and got me paid without the stress. I’m glad I didn’t go with a big firm.”
These are real examples of Uber-related accidents we've seen in the Bronx — moments that started with a ride and ended in serious injury.
Even if the Uber driver wasn’t fully at fault, passengers can still recover for their injuries. Documenting every detail helps protect your case from the start.
We don’t just talk — we deliver. See what happened when Bronx clients put their Uber accident cases in our hands.
Truth About Insurance CompaniesThese are real settlement results for Bronx clients injured while riding in or being hit by an Uber — including passengers, pedestrians, and other drivers.
Client was riding in an Uber when it was rear-ended on the Cross Bronx Expressway. Cervical disc injury required injections and therapy.
Uber driver failed to yield at a crosswalk. Client sustained knee ligament damage and missed several months of work.
Client’s car was T-boned by an Uber running a yellow. Back and shoulder injuries required orthopedic treatment.
Uber stopped short in traffic. Seatbelt caused bruised ribs and shoulder tear. Medical records supported full payout.
These results are based on actual Bronx cases. Every Uber accident is unique, and results depend on your injuries, treatment, and documentation.
Injured in an Uber accident and not sure what comes next? We’ve broken down what Bronx residents ask us most — in plain English.
Yes. Uber’s insurance team isn’t on your side — their job is to pay as little as possible. Once you speak with them, they document everything you say. Having a Bronx-based lawyer protects your rights before they try to minimize your case.
It doesn't matter which Bronx neighborhood it happened in — we've handled cases from every corner, including Co-op City, Parkchester, Soundview, and the Deegan. What matters is documenting it fast, especially with busy intersections and shared liability.
Possibly. Uber provides coverage for passengers no matter who caused the crash. If another car hit the Uber you were in, that car’s insurance may be on the hook — but Uber’s policy can still apply depending on how the crash happened.
You’re not alone — many Bronx clients wait a day or two to see how they feel. But insurance companies use delays against you. Even going to urgent care or a local clinic a few days later can help prove your case and show you didn’t ignore your injuries.
Most Uber cases settle before trial. But in the Bronx, court backlogs are real — and Uber’s adjusters know this. We prep every case like it’s going to court, but we aim to settle fast and get you paid without dragging it out unless absolutely necessary.
In most cases, you have 3 years from the date of the crash. But for claims involving city-owned vehicles (like NYC buses or DOT vans), the window is much shorter. That’s why it’s smart to get legal guidance early — especially in Bronx rideshare cases.
Real questions from real Bronx riders — before they’re ready to hire anyone. No pressure. Just straight answers.
We work on contingency — if we don’t win, you don’t pay. There are no upfront costs, no hourly fees, and no pressure.
You may be eligible for medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, therapy costs, and more — depending on your injuries and impact.
New York allows recovery even if you're partly at fault. You may still win a claim, and we fight to keep the blame where it belongs.
Many Uber injury cases settle in under 6 months — some faster. If surgery or fault disputes are involved, it may take longer. We keep it moving.
It’s common — especially with Uber rides. As long as we document your timeline and act quickly, we can still file your claim and protect your case.
No. Talk to us first. Anything you say to Uber or their insurer could hurt your case. We handle all communication to protect your rights.
You’re still eligible. Uber’s policy may cover you as a pedestrian or passenger. We've won cases even when clients never entered the car.
Yes — up to $1M depending on the driver’s status at the time. We know how to trigger this coverage and maximize your recovery.
Uber includes hit-and-run coverage. If you didn’t get the plate, we may still be able to file a claim using app logs and witness info.
In most cases, 3 years — but if a city vehicle was involved or you’re suing the MTA, the deadline could be 90 days. Don’t guess. Call us.
Yes — send us photos, app screenshots, hospital info, or voice notes. We’ll tell you what’s helpful and get your claim started.
From case investigation to payout, our local team handles every step. No call centers. No handoffs. Just Bronx people helping Bronx clients.
If you were hit by an Uber, or injured while riding in one, these NYC tools and local contacts can help you take the next steps.

📍 CityMD Parkchester location at 731 White Plains Rd — most Parkchester clients start here after a fall or fender bender.
🗺️ Located near the 6 train Parkchester station — right between Starbucks and Capital One.
Swipe to see real Bronx streets where cyclists have been hit, forced off the road, or injured by dangerous conditions.
Grand Concourse bike lanes — frequent dooring and side-swipes from double-parked vehicles.
White Plains Rd under the 6 train — tight space, low lighting, no bike buffer.
Cross Bronx service roads — potholes, trucks, and no safe shoulder space for cyclists.
Southern Blvd near the zoo — high-speed turns and frequent bus-bike conflicts.
Metropolitan Ave by Parkchester Station — busy crosswalks and narrow riding space during rush hour.
Bronx River Pkwy overpasses — cracked pavement and no dedicated bike lanes create crash risk.
When rideshare apps are involved, figuring out who's responsible isn't always obvious. We investigate all parties — not just the Uber driver — to make sure every potential insurance policy is on the table.
If the Uber driver caused the crash — even partially — we file claims against their personal policy, and if they were on the clock, Uber’s $1M policy may apply.
Uber provides different levels of coverage depending on what the driver was doing — logged in, picking up, or mid-trip. We make sure you get the max coverage available.
If another car hit your Uber or caused a pileup, we file claims against their insurance too. Multiple parties can be at fault — and we don’t leave money behind.
Uber includes uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. If someone flees the scene or has no insurance, we may still be able to recover for you through Uber’s protection.
Many Bronx riders don’t realize their own car insurance or health policy may help too — especially for medical bills or lost wages. We check all angles so nothing’s missed.
Tap any item below to see exactly what to do — no pressure, no lawyer talk. Just real help.
Even if you feel okay, get checked out. Uber accidents often cause injuries that don’t show symptoms right away. Urgent care or ER — just go.
Screenshot the driver’s name, time, route, receipt — anything in the app tied to your ride. Uber may remove access later.
Take wide shots and close-ups. Get plates, damage, intersections, traffic signs — all of it. Daylight or night.
If someone saw what happened, get their info. Independent witnesses can make or break a case later.
They’re not on your side. You’re not legally required to talk to them yet, and they can use your words against you.
Do this the same day. Write down what time it was, where you were going, what direction the car was facing, and how it happened.
Keep a small notebook or phone log of pain, doctor visits, missed work, and how you feel day to day.
Even if you’re not ready to file a case, get clarity. Insurance reps push quick settlements. Know what you’re signing first.
These are real results from Uber accidents in the Bronx. Your case is unique — but we fight for every dollar you deserve.
Our client was in the backseat when the Uber driver rear-ended a stopped vehicle at a red light. She suffered a herniated disc and required several months of physical therapy. Uber’s insurance initially denied responsibility — we pushed, filed, and settled pre-trial.
A food delivery worker on a bike was struck by an Uber making a left turn without yielding. We secured medical coverage, negotiated with Uber’s excess policy, and settled after proving lasting shoulder damage and missed income.
An Uber collided with multiple vehicles during a lane change. Our client suffered multiple fractures. The case involved complex liability between drivers. After depositions and expert reports, we secured a high six-figure settlement just before trial.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is evaluated on its own facts.
We’ve seen it all — from passengers hurt during a ride, to Bronx pedestrians blindsided by distracted Uber drivers. If it involves a rideshare vehicle, we’re ready.
Some injuries show up right away. Others take hours or even days to feel. Tap below for details on what we see most often in Bronx Uber crash cases.
Caused by rapid back-and-forth motion of the head during a sudden stop or collision. Often starts with soreness and stiffness the next day, not immediately.
You don’t need to hit your head to get a concussion. Brain trauma can occur from the sudden jolt alone. Watch for fogginess, light sensitivity, or nausea.
Common after side or rear impact. May start as dull pain and turn into shooting or radiating pain, especially down the legs.
Hands, ribs, or legs are often injured when passengers instinctively brace themselves. Fractures are sometimes missed on first scans.
These safety devices save lives — but also cause bruising, cracked ribs, or sternum pain during deployment or hard stops.
Often caused by twisting, bracing, or hitting the interior during impact. Can lead to long recovery and physical therapy needs.
Includes sprains, strains, and internal bruising. These don’t always show up on X-rays but can be very painful and long-lasting.
Not all injuries are physical. After a crash, many people struggle with sleep, driving fear, flashbacks, or general anxiety. These are real and treatable.
Getting hit while riding or walking near an Uber can flip your life upside down. We’ve helped hundreds of Bronx clients recover physically, financially, and emotionally — after the app ride ends in a crash.

If you were injured as an Uber passenger, driver, or pedestrian — these Bronx services are commonly used right after a rideshare crash.
After an Uber crash, get everything in writing — from hospital intake forms to tow slips. These small details often matter more than you think.
Many Uber passengers and drivers go to urgent care first — not the ER. If you visited CityMD, DocGo, or any Bronx walk-in clinic after your Uber accident, we’ll show you how those records help build a stronger case.
👉 See how urgent care visits impact your Uber claimIf an Uber hit you while crossing or standing near the street, you’re likely covered under their liability policy. We’ll check surveillance, gather witness statements, and file a claim under the correct Uber coverage tier.
You can report an Uber accident in the app, but don’t explain injuries or fault. Uber’s insurance team reads every word. Let us notify them with the correct legal framing so your case isn’t dismissed early.
You generally have 3 years, but Uber accident claims can involve tighter deadlines if city property or no-fault paperwork is involved. We’ll handle everything and make sure no deadlines are missed.
We’ve handled Uber cases worth $30,000 to over $500,000. It depends on injury type, liability, and policy limits. We’ll tell you what your Uber injury claim is realistically worth — no guesswork.
Yes. Uber’s insurance team is aggressive, and most people don’t realize what their claim is really worth. We’ll deal with their adjusters and help you avoid lowball offers or denied claims.
That’s a good start. We’ll contact the urgent care or ER (like CityMD or Montefiore) and request your records. Uber’s policy covers treatment, and we’ll make sure your bills don’t get denied or delayed.

Real answers to common questions from people injured in Uber crashes across the Bronx — whether as a rider, pedestrian, or another driver.
If you were injured while riding in an Uber, hit by an Uber, or driving another car when an Uber caused the crash — you may have a claim. We check for insurance coverage, fault, and medical evidence.
Yes. Always call 911. A police report helps document the crash location, vehicles involved, and possible fault — all key factors in your Uber claim.
Uber provides up to $1 million in uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. If the driver disappears or lacks coverage, we may still file a claim under Uber’s policy on your behalf.
You typically have 3 years from the crash date — but if an Uber is involved, delays in notice can hurt your claim. Call us right away to file properly and preserve your rights.
Yes. New York allows shared fault. If you were a passenger or pedestrian, your claim is often stronger. We’ll assess the facts and explain how fault may affect your settlement.
No. Uber’s insurance adjusters work to reduce payouts. Don’t give a statement or accept any offer before speaking to us. We’ll protect your case and handle all communication for you.
It depends on your injury, medical costs, lost work, and recovery time. Uber claims can range from $25,000 to $500,000+. We’ll estimate your case value during your free consultation.
You may recover ER bills, follow-up care, physical therapy, lost income, and pain and suffering. We help you document everything for maximum compensation.
We charge nothing up front. Our firm works on contingency — meaning you pay nothing unless we win. No risk. No pressure. Just results.

Uber passenger hit by a turning vehicle in Parkchester:
A Bronx woman was riding in the back of an Uber when another car ran a red light and hit them at a left-turn intersection. She suffered a lower back injury and needed 6 months of physical therapy.
Uber driver rear-ended near Bruckner Boulevard:
A rideshare driver was hit from behind at a red light while waiting to pick up a passenger. The impact caused a shoulder injury and led to missed work. We helped recover from Uber’s own insurer.
Pedestrian hit by an Uber pulling out of a driveway:
A local teen was walking near a commercial lot when an Uber exited without looking. The client had visible leg bruising and needed an urgent care visit and orthopedic follow-up.
Minor crash as an Uber passenger — but neck pain followed:
An Uber was sideswiped by another car on the Cross Bronx Expressway. At first it seemed minor, but the client developed delayed-onset neck stiffness and headaches a few days later.
Uber accident with uninsured driver near Pelham Parkway:
A Bronx resident’s Uber was hit by a car that fled the scene. The Uber passenger didn’t know if there was coverage — but we filed under Uber’s uninsured motorist policy and got the medical bills paid.
