Can I Sue Lyft If the Lyft Driver Ran Over My Foot?

Do you have the right to file a lawsuit if a Lyft driver ran over your foot? Yes, you could have grounds to file a claim if a Lyft driver ran over your foot. Unfortunately, Lyft drivers can sometimes be reckless and pull up or away when passengers are still standing too close to the vehicle – resulting in unsuspecting passengers getting their feet run over.

If you were injured after a Lyft driver ran over your foot, then you might have grounds to file an injury claim against the rideshare company.

Places Where Lyft Drivers Can Potentially Run Over Passengers’ Feet

Reckless Lyft drivers can potentially run over passengers’ feet anywhere where they are picking up or dropping off their passengers. These places could include the following:

• Parking lots
• Curbs
• Sidewalks
• Alleys
• Driveways

If the driver is pulling up to pick up a passenger, the driver might recklessly get too close to the passenger and run over their feet. If the driver is pulling away after dropping off a passenger, the driver might start driving before the passenger is away from the vehicle and run over their feet.

Potential Injuries Associated with these Incidents

If your foot was run over by a Lyft driver while you were getting picked off or dropped off, you might suffer a number of injuries, some of which could include the following:

• Crushing foot injuries (which can sometimes lead to amputations)
• Torn ligaments (also called ligament tears)
• Toe injuries
• Foot fractures
• Ankle fractures

Some injuries, like foot and ankle fractures, could require surgery to treat. Some possible surgeries include foot fusion surgery and ankle fusion surgery. Another possible treatment includes installation of metal instruments, surgical screws, and metal plates, for example.

Some injuries can also result in chronic pain. Fractures (even minor fractures), ligament damage, and nerve damage can all potentially lead to Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). CRPS is essentially chronic pain that persists even after the injury has healed – and doesn’t match the severity of the injury.

Without a doubt these injuries always have the potential to be serious. Victims could be left dealing with extensive harm that could sometimes lead to permanent disability. Regardless of the specific harm that you or a member of your family suffered after getting a foot run over by a Lyft driver, you should explore your legal options – you might have grounds to sue.
