Sometimes I see insurance companies refer to motor vehicle collisions as “fender benders,” and I know perfectly well why they do this. They do it to trivialize the human costs of these crashes, but if you’ve been injured in a motor vehicle collision, then you already know that they cause some very real problems for their victims, including:
Health Problems. When you have been injured in a rideshare accident, you need to get all of the treatment that your doctor recommends. It is especially important to get any imaging studies that he or she requests. It is important for your recovery, and it is important evidence of your injury.
Financial Problems. Due to medical bills, lost wages, or additional (and unexpected) child care expenses, you may quickly find yourself in a financial pinch.
Legal Problems. When you have been injured in a rideshare accident, you may have a variety of legal issues arise that are not easy to navigate alone. You probably have questions about which insurance policies cover you. You may have questions about who you should speak to or give recorded statements to? Are there some people that you have a duty to speak to?
“You simply don’t know
what you don’t know.”
But there is another type of problem that is perhaps scarier than any of the types of problems listed above. It is the Hidden Problem. You simply don’t know what you don’t know.
