Ridesharing has made transportation more convenient than ever, but accidents involving Uber and Lyft vehicles are becoming increasingly common. If you’re injured in a rideshare accident, you may be wondering: Who pays for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering?
Understanding Rideshare Liability
Unlike traditional car accidents, rideshare crashes involve multiple layers of insurance coverage. Uber and Lyft provide commercial insurance, but coverage depends on whether the driver was actively using the app or had a passenger at the time of the accident. Determining liability can quickly become complex, especially when both the rideshare company and another driver are involved.
Steps to Take After a Rideshare Accident
-
Seek immediate medical attention – even if you don’t feel seriously hurt.
-
Document everything – photos, witness statements, and driver information.
-
Report the accident to Uber or Lyft through the app.
-
Contact an attorney who understands rideshare accident claims.
