In July 2019, LaDonna Hamilton was driving four Uber passengers on a highway in Los Angeles when she was rear-ended. Her car was trapped between the truck that hit her and another one in front.
While Uber’s insurance covered the accident and her health insurance covered her hospital bills, Hamilton’s car was totaled.
