The Rideshare Insurance Maze

When you're driving for Uber or Lyft, which insurance applies depends on what you were doing at the exact moment of the crash. There are three coverage tiers:

Period 1: App On, No Ride Request

Limited Coverage

Waiting for a ping. Uber/Lyft provides minimal coverage. Your personal insurance may deny claims if they know you were driving rideshare.

Period 2: En Route to Passenger

$1M Coverage

Accepted a ride, heading to pickup. Full Uber/Lyft commercial coverage kicks in.

Period 3: Passenger in Car

$1M Coverage

Transporting passenger. Maximum coverage applies, but proving damages still requires skilled negotiation.

The Coverage Gap Problem

If you were in Period 1 (app on, waiting for rides), you're in the "coverage gap." Your personal auto insurance may deny the claim because you were working. Uber/Lyft's contingent coverage is minimal. We know how to navigate this and find coverage for your injuries.
