The Role of Government Regulation in Uber Safety Standards

By: JML Law | May 30, 2025.
The Role of Government Regulation in Uber Safety Standards

Uber has changed how we move around cities, offering speed and convenience. However, with that convenience comes new concerns about rider safety. As reported by the NHTSA, 3.6 crashes per million miles are recorded for rideshare drivers, surpassing the national average of 2.5 crashes. Victims need to know who is responsible when something goes wrong and what protections exist. That’s where government regulation plays a crucial role.

As our trusted Los Angeles Uber accident lawyer, we focus on safety and accountability. We help clients understand their rights and guide them through legal recovery.

The Intersection of Law and Driver Responsibility

Government agencies create rules to keep passengers safe. These rules cover driver background checks, insurance requirements, vehicle inspections, and company reporting. Yet, enforcement is often inconsistent. Riders are left vulnerable when rideshare companies fail to meet safety expectations.

Our experienced attorney, Nicholas Sarris, has worked closely with victims of rideshare accidents and understands the gaps in safety oversight that still exist.

Holding Companies Accountable for Unsafe Conditions

At JML Law, APLC, we take action when companies fall short. Our legal team investigates how regulatory failures may have contributed to an accident. Whether it’s a failure to vet a dangerous driver or poor vehicle maintenance, we pursue claims with detail and care.

JML Law, APLC, supports victims by using the law to demand better protections. We believe public safety must come before profits. With our legal team, we don’t just build cases—we push for long-term improvements.

Your Rights After a Rideshare Accident

After a crash, it’s not always clear who to blame or how to start the legal process. Uber’s insurance policies are layered and confusing. Government rules help provide structure, but enforcement and follow-through are key. As our Los Angeles Uber accident attorney, we help make sense of it all and pursue maximum compensation for your injuries, lost wages, and emotional distress.

If you or someone you love was hurt in a rideshare accident, it’s time to take action. You may be entitled to more than you think, especially when safety regulations are ignored or violated.

Let’s Work Together to Improve Safety

When riders suffer, we act. We combine legal strategy with a commitment to public accountability. Our goal is not only to win your case but also to make ridesharing safer for everyone.
