Convenient Service, Inconvenient Accidents

Convenient Service, Inconvenient
Accidents

Since Uber started in 2009, the use of rideshare apps has exploded in popularity. As of 2021, 3.5 million people were driving for Uber, and over 2 million driving for Lyft. That’s a lot of rides taken and miles traveled.

There’s no doubting the convenience of Uber and Lyft. Unfortunately, it’s also true that car accidents happen every day. In 2021, there were 121,345 reported car accidents in Arizona alone – and over 51,000 of those accidents resulted in injuries.

An Uber or Lyft is just like any other vehicle on the road, they can be involved in an accident just like anyone else. And despite the commercial service provided, rideshares are not the same as taxis or taking the bus. This makes the aftermath of a ridesharing accident surprisingly complicated.

A Maze Of Insurance

A driver for Uber or Lyft is responsible for providing their own vehicle and they don’t need a commercial license, or even commercial insurance. This can make an insurance claim a little tricky in the event of an accident.

If you’re driving, you need to have some kind of insurance. It’s intended to cover the costs of any medical and repair bills that result from an accident. However, a personal car insurance policy doesn’t cover a driver if they’re using a vehicle for commercial purposes. Providing rides as an Uber or Lyft driver is considered use for a commercial purpose.

So who provides insurance for Uber and Lyft drivers who are on the Job?

There are a few options for insurance for rideshare drivers. There is the facilitating company itself or the driver may have elected to purchase a commercial policy.

Uber and Lyft both provide insurance for their drivers. This insurance policy provides up to $1 million in liability coverage. But this is far from the “free money” that many people expect. Depending on the details of the accident, for example the driver was found at fault, a rideshare company’s insurance may not pay anything at all.

When Does A Rideshare Company’s Insurance Pay?

That $1 million in liability coverage is an attractive amount, but it’s not always up for grabs. There are very specific requirements that need to be satisfied if you want to see a single cent.

First, if you’re in an Uber or a Lyft and your vehicle is rear-ended, the other driver’s insurance will cover the price of any injuries or repairs. However, if that other driver is uninsured or underinsured, the rideshare company’s insurance policy may help pay for the rest of your injuries.

Secondly, the rideshare driver needs to be actually logged into the app. Remember, these are personal vehicles, and Uber or Lyft’s insurance provider won’t pay up if a driver was using his or her car for errands or other personal use.

However, once a driver is logged into the app, you’re automatically open to up to $50,000 in liability insurance. This means if you’re hit by an Uber or Lyft driver who was logged in (but not actively on duty) your injuries could be covered for up to $50,000.

On the other hand, everything changes if a rideshare driver is actively on duty. For an Uber or Lyft driver to qualify as “on duty”, he or she needs to satisfy either of these requirements:

The driver has accepted a ride request, and is on the way to pick up a passenger, or

The driver has already picked up a passenger, and is driving the passenger to a destination.

If an Uber or Lyft driver is on duty, the rideshare company’s $1 million in liability coverage is in effect. But after your accident, you’ll need some legal help to get any of that money. That’s where Arizona Rideshare Accident Lawyers can help.

What An Arizona Rideshare Accident Lawyer Can Do For You

Every car accident is different, and every rideshare accident is different too. It can be complicated to figure out whose insurance will cover the cost of your injuries, but an experienced rideshare accident lawyer can help you navigate your claim.

A rideshare accident claim can also be frustrating. Uber or Lyft’s insurance providers may be reluctant to pay you what you need for a full recovery. You may be stuck waiting for an insurance payout that’s either too late, too small, or both. Fortunately, an attorney from Arizona Rideshare Accident Lawyers can fight with these insurance providers on your behalf.

Steps To
Take After
An Accident

01 Get To Safety and Call Emergency Services

The first thing you should do after any kind of accident is make sure everyone is safe. If anyone has been injured, you should call 911 immediately. Wait for EMS to arrive and get to a safe location before doing anything else.

02 Talk To The Police

When emergency services arrive, stay out of their way while they do their job. Once the police are on scene, answer their questions, but don’t say too much. Adrenaline and stress might make you chatty, but conflicting info may harm your case. Provide your contact information, and make sure you ask how you can get a copy of the police report.

03 Document Everything

Make sure you document the scene of the accident. Photos and videos are important – not just of the accident, but also of the surrounding area. This evidence can help your lawyers build your case. It’s also helpful to have images and video of the accident right after it happened.

04 Obtain Contact Information

After an accident, it’s common for first responders to ask plenty of questions. Don’t let anyone involved answer on your behalf, whether they were a bystander or one of the drivers involved. All you should do is speak to first responders, and get everyone’s contact information for later. Don’t forget to get your Uber or Lyft driver’s information as well.

05 Tell The Rideshare Company About The Accident

Your driver will likely report the accident to his or her rideshare company, but it’s important that you do the same. Sometimes, a driver will not want to report the accident for fear of being dropped by their insurance provider. However, to ensure you are fully taken care of, you must inform the rideshare company.

06 Get In Touch With A Lawyer

If you’ve been involved in an Uber or Lyft accident, you need to get in touch with a lawyer as soon as you can. The legal team at Arizona Rideshare Accident Lawyers can walk you through your case, and we can explain what comes next as you seek compensation.

Arizona Rideshare Passenger Accident Lawyer

If you were injured as an Uber or Lyft passenger, the professionals at TBD brand can help.

Rideshare accidents can be complicated. Ubers and Lyfts aren’t quite passenger vehicles, but they aren’t quite commercial vehicles, either. This means a driver’s personal insurance policy may not apply in an accident, since they were using the vehicle in a professional capacity.

Fortunately, ridesharing companies offer commercial insurance coverage when their drivers are on duty. Uber and Lyft offer $1 million in liability coverage, but you’ll need to jump through a few hoops if you want to see any of that compensation.

First of all, you’ll need to be able to prove that the accident happened while your driver was on duty. In the world of ridesharing, on duty is typically defined as any time between when a driver accepts a ride request and drops off his or her passengers. The driver must have their app on throughout the whole ride.

Secondly, not all accidents are valid grounds for insurance claims, so you’ll need to make sure yours fits the bill. Single-vehicle ridesharing accidents or accidents in which your driver was at fault are all valid, but it’s common for rideshare companies to try to fight back against these claims.

It can be difficult to get the money you deserve if you were hurt in an Uber or Lyft accident. Before you speak with a rideshare company’s insurance provider, make sure you reach out to a qualified rideshare accident attorney who can walk you through the process.

Arizona Rideshare Driver Accident Lawyer

Driving for Uber and Lyft is a great opportunity if you want to choose your own schedule, meet new people, or just enjoy driving. As of 2021, 3.5 million people drove for Uber, and over 2 million people drove for Lyft. If you’re one of those millions, remember that you have rights as a rideshare driver as well.

As an Uber or Lyft driver, your rideshare company won’t typically pay out if you were involved in a crash with someone else and they were found at fault. If a driver outside of your vehicle was at fault for your accident, his or her insurance will provide coverage for your bills.

Although Uber and Lyft offer $1 million in liability coverage, you won’t see much of it if you’re driving for Uber or Lyft and someone else causes your accident. On the other hand, this coverage may support you if the at-fault driver doesn’t have adequate insurance. It’s a helpful exception, but it only applies if you were logged into the app at the time of the accident.

Determining who’s covered by what insurance policy can be a challenge. Fortunately, you can get in touch with a qualified rideshare accident lawyer who can help you figure out who’s to blame for your accident, and how you can collect a much-needed insurance payout. Get in touch with us today to learn more.

Accident Lawyers FAQs

Arizona Uber, Lyft, and Rideshare Accident Lawyers FAQs

Why Should I Contact A Rideshare Accident Lawyer?

Accidents happen, but fortunately, a Phoenix rideshare accident lawyer can help you get back on your feet. In the immediate aftermath of an Uber or Lyft accident, you may not notice that you’ve been injured. Adrenaline is powerful, and it may take a few hours – or even days – before you start to realize that your neck or back is sore and hurting.

Rideshare injuries can injure you just like any other kind of car accident. And just like any other car accident, medical bills can be steep, and insurance may not be willing to pay you what you need to recover. A lawyer can walk you through the legal process to get the compensation you deserve.

What Makes An Uber Accident So Complicated?

Uber and Lyft accidents may happen like any other car accident, but due to the nature of the ridesharing industry, the insurance and compensation situation can be challenging and frustrating, to say the least. There are multiple parties involved, from your driver, to the rideshare company, to anyone else who may have caused the accident.

An uber accident lawyer in Phoenix, AZ, can help you navigate all the hurdles between you and your much-needed payout, and the right legal team can also investigate if any other parties can be held accountable for your injuries.

Whose Insurance Pays In The Event Of A Rideshare Accident?

A Phoenix Lyft accident lawyer can help you fight for your compensation, but it takes a bit of investigation. Because a rideshare vehicle belongs to the driver, they’re required to have their own insurance policy. However, because their vehicle is being used for commercial purposes, their personal insurance policy won’t cover them (or their passengers) in the event of accident or injury.

Instead, rideshare companies like Lyft and Uber provide insurance for their drivers when their drivers are on the job. These policies provide up to $1 million in liability coverage, but if you want to see a single cent, you have to prove that the rideshare driver was actively logged in to the app and performing a rideshare-related task – such as transporting passengers, or heading to pick up new passengers.

Why Do I Need To Seek Damages After A Scooter Accident?

Much like rideshares, scooters rentals are changing how we get around our cities. Unfortunately, they can be pretty dangerous if others on the road (or even the sidewalk) aren’t paying attention.
