A woman who says she broke multiple bones when she crashed an Uber scooter is suing the firm for failing to fit turn signals

A woman in Colorado is suing Uber for failing to equip rental scooters with turn signals after she allegedly crashed a Jump scooter in 2019, ending up with a dislocated hip and multiple fractures.

Her injuries have resulted in hours of surgery, according to the lawsuit she filed against the vehicle and delivery service giant.

Erin Norman, who says she crashed on a street in San Francisco in 2019, is accusing Uber of not fitting the Jump scooters with turn signals, despite designing them for use in cities.

Other defendants in the case are Neutron Holdings, which operates as Lime and acquired Jump in May, and manufacturers Segway and Xiaomi.
