Taxi cab accidents
People hail taxi cabs countless times per day in large metropolitan areas, and taxis are also called in advance for a ride to take people from less urban areas to their destination. They are meant to safely and conveniently take you from point A to point B, however, sometimes accidents happen involving taxi cabs. These accidents can occur in a couple of ways, and they could be preventable in a case of negligence. In these cases, may suffer from injuries and/or losses. If you were in an accident involving a taxi cab, contact us for a free consultation to see if you’re entitled to compensation.
Taxi cab drivers should be giving their passengers the highest duty of care since taxi cabs are common carriers. Common carriers are various ways of public transport, such as train drivers, bus drivers, and the like. They owe a particularly high duty of care to their passengers since they fall within the common carrier category. Taxi cab companies also may not want to take the liability and deal with their insurance company to pay the costs, so it is important that you have a lawyer to guide you through the process so that you can get the most fair outcome.
One possible type of accident is if you are hit by a taxi cab, either as a driver/passenger in another car or a pedestrian. This would be a case of negligence that would be treated like a car accident claim between two parties. You must be able to prove your claim by proving that the other party was liable for the accident, as well as your own injuries; this ultimately will prove that the taxi cab was negligent in the accident that caused your injuries.
The other type of taxi cab accident is if you are a passenger in the taxi and the driver gets into an accident. In this case, you would be able to file a personal injury lawsuit against one of both of the drivers as they find who the negligent party between the two is.
