Aside from the opposing driver and their insurance company, there may be other parties that bear liability for an accident occurring. Manufacturers of faulty car parts may be held liable for damages that arise from an accident that involved the malfunctioning of their product. If the opposing driver caused the accident while performing their duties as a government official, the local government might be a possible defendant. Alternatively, rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft may be held responsible if their driver policies are negligent.
