As ride-share services like Uber grow, so do Uber-related car accidents, which raise unique legal questions. If you’re involved in an Uber accident, understanding who is responsible can be confusing.


Who is Liable in an Uber Accident?

Liability depends on several factors:


  • The Uber Driver: If the driver caused the accident through negligence, they may be

responsible.

  • Another Driver: If another driver is at fault, their insurance typically covers the

damages.

  • Uber’s Insurance: Uber provides insurance coverage, but it varies based on the driver’s

status:


Not logged into the app: Only the driver’s personal insurance applies.

Logged in but not transporting passengers: Uber provides limited coverage

(up to $100,000 per accident).

Transporting passengers or en route to pick up: Uber offers up to $1 million in

liability coverage.


What to Do After an Uber Car Accident

If you’re in an Uber accident:

  1. Seek medical attention, even if injuries seem minor.

  2. Document the scene by taking photos and gathering witness information.

  3. Report the accident through the Uber app.

  4. Contact an attorney to help navigate the claims process and protect your rights.
