Delivery And Rideshare Accidents In Lebanon
Lebanon roads now have new regular operators on them. For the last 10 or more years, rideshares and delivery trucks have increased usage across Warren County and Ohio at large. But, the last three years, specifically, have seen the number of those drivers and vehicles skyrocket. And so have the accidents they’ve caused.
At Rittgers Rittgers & Nakajima, our attorneys have extensive experience in helping our clients in Lebanon and Warren County recover compensation after personal injury accidents. There are many extenuating circumstances with these cases, and they are legally complex. Our team can help you understand the issues so that you can make the right choices.
Delivery Truck Accidents
Delivery trucks, especially the now ubiquitous Amazon delivery trucks, carry goods and packages all over Warren County. Those trucks are under tight schedules, make frequent stops and may not have all the right visibility for certain streets in Lebanon.
Accidents involving these trucks can cause injuries such as:
- Broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
- Spinal cord damage
- Abrasions
- Punctures
The companies employing these drivers and not adequately training or supplying them must be accountable for these damages.
Rideshare Accidents
Rideshare apps are supposed to replace taxicabs, but the truth is a little different. While they are an affordable alternative to taxis and are in places where traditional taxi companies are not, there are a lot of advantages for other drivers. However, it’s very easy to become a rideshare driver. The restrictions and oversite on vehicles vary greatly. It’s a recipe for serious accidents.
