'all over the place' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'first up in bus crash i got out egg' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'first' could be 'i' (I in Roman numerals eg Elizabeth I) and 'i' is found within the answer.
'i' is within the answer.
an anagram of 'out' is 'uto' which is located in the remaining letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ubiquitous that I've seen before include "Omnipresent" , "Global" , "Found everywhere" .)
