Rideshare (Uber & Lyft) Accidents claims in High Point

Market weeks fill this town with people who are not from here. Drivers come in for the week too. A driver working a market for the first time is learning the streets, the showroom entrances, and the app at the same time, which is a lot of attention spent on anything but the road ahead. If you were riding, you are almost certainly clean on fault. That is the whole ballgame in North Carolina, where a percent of the blame on a passenger ends the claim as completely as half of it would. Screenshot the trip and the plate. Note the showroom or street you were leaving from. Out-of-town drivers are gone by the end of the weekend.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I get a crash report in High Point?

The High Point Police Department writes reports for crashes inside the city. On I-74 and US-311 the NC State Highway Patrol is frequently the responding agency, and elsewhere in the county it may be the Guilford County Sheriff's Office. The NC Division of Motor Vehicles also takes crash-report requests statewide. If you aren't sure who responded, the report number from the scene is the fastest way to find out.

Which court would handle my injury case in High Point?

High Point is in Guilford County, which holds court in both High Point and Greensboro, so a filed suit goes through the Guilford County courts. North Carolina separates civil cases into District Court and Superior Court depending on the amount claimed, and that depends on the claim rather than the city. Most claims settle without a filing. The deadline if yours is filed is 3 years.

A delivery truck hit me on US-311. Is that claim handled differently?

The law is the same, but the other side is not one person with a personal policy. A commercial carrier usually has a claims process that starts the same day, its own account of what happened, and a strong reason to find some share of fault on you, since 1% is enough to end your claim in North Carolina. Keep your own photos and the report number.

How long do I have to file an injury claim in North Carolina?

In North Carolina, the deadline is generally 3 years from the date of the accident. 3 years personal injury; wrongful death 2 years. Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.
