What to Know About Uber and Lyft Accident Claims in Rocklin

Ridesharing Passenger Accidents (Uber & Lyft)

Were you injured as a passenger in an Uber or Lyft in Rocklin, California? If so, you may be covered by a commercial insurance policy held by the ridesharing company. In 2015, California enacted a law to protect ridesharing passengers. The California Department of Insurance mandates that all ridesharing companies operating in the state must carry a minimum $1 million liability policy. This policy is active from when you enter the Uber or Lyft until you leave the vehicle.

Other Ridesharing Collisions (Non-Passenger Uber & Lyft Accidents)

Were you involved in an accident with a ridesharing vehicle while you were a pedestrian, bicyclist, or passenger in another car? If so, the claims process can be complicated. The insurance company liable for your crash depends on various factors. If there was a passenger in the ridesharing vehicle, the Uber or Lyft commercial insurance policy is usually active and can be held responsible for your claim. However, if the ridesharing driver was not working for Uber or Lyft during the accident, your claim may fall under their auto insurance liability policy. For any questions, please contact our Rocklin, CA, Uber, and Lyft accident lawyer for assistance.
