Uber/Lyft/Rideshare Accidents in Irvine

Recovering Through Insurance After a Rideshare Crash

Anyone who is injured in a rideshare car collision in Irvine involving Uber and Lyft should be able to file a claim under the liability insurance policies held by those companies, whether they were a passenger in the vehicle, another motorist, or a pedestrian. These companies provide up to $1,000,000 of coverage per accident involving a driver carrying a paying passenger or driving to an accepted ride request.

If a rideshare driver is logged into their app but has not accepted a ride request at the time they get into a wreck, the liability insurance policies for both companies provide $50,000 for a single person’s injuries, $100,000 for all injuries, and $25,000 for property damage stemming from a single accident. However, when a driver gets into a crash while not logged into their app, their own liability insurance would be the primary source of financial recovery for any other person involved in the incident. Our dedicated attorneys could look at the details of a case to determine who is responsible for covering their client’s damages.
