Liability After an Uber or Lyft Accident
Liability depends on how the collision happened, what each driver did, and which insurance policies apply. The rideshare driver isn’t automatically the only potentially responsible party. Another motorist or multiple parties may share responsibility based on the facts.
A rideshare accident claim may involve:
- The rideshare driver: Driving behavior may be relevant to determining fault.
- Another motorist: A driver outside the rideshare vehicle may have caused or contributed to the crash.
- Multiple insurers: Available coverage may depend on the vehicles involved and the rideshare driver’s app status.
Coverage may change depending on whether the driver was offline, waiting for a request, traveling to pick up a passenger, or transporting a rider. We examine the available facts and insurance information rather than assume Uber, Lyft, or a particular driver is liable.
