Rideshare accidents differ from standard car accident claims in ways that significantly affect your ability to recover compensation. The key distinction is insurance coverage — what policy applies depends entirely on what phase of the trip the Uber or Lyft driver was in at the time of the crash.
If the driver’s rideshare app is not active, only their personal auto insurance applies. Uber and Lyft provide no coverage during this phase.
Once the driver logs into the app but has not yet accepted a ride, limited contingent liability coverage applies — typically $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident, and $25,000 for property damage.
From the moment a driver accepts a ride request until the passenger is in the vehicle, Uber and Lyft’s full $1 million liability policy becomes active.
Once a passenger is in the vehicle, the full $1 million commercial liability policy applies. This is the most common phase for passenger injury claims.
Determining which phase was active at the time of your accident is one of the first steps in building your claim. Porcaro Law Group handles this investigation — including obtaining app records, GPS data, and driver logs — so you don’t have to navigate it alone.
Rideshare crashes have contributed to a nearly 3% increase in road fatalities nationwide. In Florida alone, there were over 10,000 rideshare accidents in 2022. As many as one in four car accidents in major cities now involve a rideshare vehicle. South Florida’s dense urban corridors — including Delray Beach, Boca Raton, and Fort Lauderdale — see a disproportionate share of these incidents.

If you’re injured in an accident, your first priority should be your health. Seek medical attention right away, even if you feel okay at first. Document the accident scene, collect contact information from others involved or witnesses, and report the incident to the appropriate authorities or property owner. It can also help to speak with a personal injury lawyer early to protect your rights.
To have a potential personal injury case, there generally must be: (1) someone else’s negligence, (2) an injury, and (3) a direct connection between the negligence and your injury. A lawyer can help review the facts of your situation and explain whether you may have a valid claim.
No. Porcaro Law Group offers a free consultation so you can discuss your accident and legal options with us at no cost or obligation.
Most personal injury lawyers, including Porcaro LawGroup, work on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay attorney’s fees unless your case results in a recovery.
Florida has time limits, called statutes of limitations, that apply to personal injury cases. In most cases, you have TWO YEARS from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. It’s important to act early, so you don’t miss the deadline.
