Accidents involving commercial vehicles—like Amazon vans, Uber and Lyft rideshares, delivery trucks, and work-related vehicles—require specialized legal handling. These cases often involve large corporations, complex insurance layers, and aggressive defense strategies. At Carli K. Bryant Law, our Georgia personal injury attorneys know how to untangle the red tape and fight for full compensation.
Company vehicle crashes include any incident where the at-fault party was driving for work
or business purposes. Examples include:
• Uber or Lyft drivers transporting passengers
• Amazon, FedEx, UPS, or DHL delivery vans
• Food delivery (e.g. DoorDash, Grubhub, Instacart)
• Contractors in work vans or trucks
• Bus, shuttle, or company commuter drivers
If the driver was "on the clock" when the crash occurred, the employer or rideshare
company may share legal liability.
Rideshare and company vehicle accidents are not like typical car crashes. These cases often
involve:
• The at-fault driver (employee or contractor)
• The employer or parent company
• The vehicle owner (if separate)
• Corporate insurance carriers
• Rideshare companies (Uber, Lyft, etc.)
Georgia follows a “modified comparative fault” system. That means we must prove the other
party was more than 50% at fault to recover damages. If multiple parties contributed to the
crash, our firm works to identify and pursue every responsible entity.
Georgia has specific requirements for rideshare drivers and companies under state law:
• Uber/Lyft must carry up to $1 million in liability insurance when a passenger is in the
vehicle.
• Rideshare drivers must undergo background checks.
• Drivers must carry personal auto insurance that meets Georgia minimums.
• When the driver is logged in but not transporting, a lower-tier commercial policy still
applies.
• Distracted driving (apps, GPS, texting)
• Fatigued or overworked drivers
• Speeding or reckless lane changes
• Inadequate driver screening or training
• Unsafe vehicle maintenance or inspections
Many corporations pressure drivers to meet tight deadlines, leading to careless decisions on
the road.
Whether you were a passenger, pedestrian, or another driver, you may be entitled to
compensation for:
• Medical bills and emergency treatment
• Lost wages and future income
• Pain and suffering
• Vehicle damage or replacement
• Permanent impairment or disfigurement
• Punitive damages for gross negligence
If you were injured while working (e.g. in a company car), we can also explore workers’
comp or third-party liability claims.
1. Call 911 and report the accident.
