The vast majority of people using ride-sharing apps like Uber or Lyft don’t ask themselves important questions like, “Whose insurance will cover my injuries if we get into an accident?” or, “What if there isn’t enough coverage or any insurance at all?”
It is also common to see situations where an Uber or Lyft driver strikes another vehicle or pedestrian. Regardless of the specifics, it’s important to know what happens in any kind of ride-sharing accident.
Fortunately, recent law changes and the implementation of new regulations are helping to ensure that you are covered by insurance in the event of a collision involving an Uber or Lyft driver.
