Perhaps only slightly less well-known than its main competitor Uber, Lyft is a major rideshare service operating in hundreds of U.S. cities, including Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and dozens of other Florida cities. With over two million Lyft drivers nationwide, accidents involving Lyft vehicles are inevitable.
So, what happens if you are hit by a Lyft driver, riding as a passenger in a Lyft, or driving for Lyft when a crash occurs? These cases are handled differently than other car accidents, and understanding Lyft’s insurance rules is critical.
At Kaba Law Group, P.L.L.C., our attorneys know the nuances of Lyft accident cases. With more than 36 years of legal experience, Lyft accident lawyer Moises Kaba III has successfully represented injury victims across Florida. Our firm has secured impressive verdicts and settlements for clients, and we are ready to fight for you.
If you’re struck by a vehicle displaying the Lyft logo, liability depends on the driver’s status in the app at the time of the crash:
Driver logged into the app, waiting for a request
Lyft provides coverage of $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident, and $25,000 for property damage.
Driver accepted a ride request or transporting a passenger
Lyft provides $1 million in liability coverage to injured parties.
Driver not logged into the Lyft app
The crash is treated like any other car accident, covered by Florida’s no-fault P.I.P. insurance, with fault-based negligence claims possible in cases of permanent injury.
Passengers are rarely at fault in a Lyft accident and are entitled to pursue full compensation for their damages. Lyft’s $1 million liability insurance policy covers passengers injured during an active ride.
However, Lyft may try to shift blame onto another driver involved in the accident. While your initial claim may be against that driver, Lyft must step in if the at-fault driver is uninsured, underinsured, or liability is disputed. An experienced attorney ensures the correct parties are held responsible and maximizes your compensation.
If you are a Lyft driver injured in a crash, you may be protected under Lyft’s insurance policies:
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) Coverage
Protects you and your passengers if the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance.
Collision and Comprehensive Coverage
Applies if you’ve accepted a ride and are en route or transporting a passenger.
Covers repair costs or actual cash value of your vehicle (subject to a $2,500 deductible), regardless of fault.
Certificate of Insurance
Lyft drivers can access proof of coverage in the app under the “Lyft Insurance” section.
If another driver wrongfully blames you, Kaba Law Group will defend against false claims while pursuing compensation for your injuries and damages.
At Kaba Law Group, P.L.L.C., our Lyft accident lawyers combine legal skill, trial experience, and aggressive advocacy to ensure you receive the full value of your claim.
Whether you were a passenger, pedestrian, another driver, or a Lyft driver yourself, we will identify the responsible parties, navigate Lyft’s complex insurance rules, and fight for the maximum compensation you deserve.
