What You Need to Know Right Now
Lyft’s insurance coverage depends on the driver’s status in the app. When a ride is accepted or a trip is in progress, Lyft provides up to $1,000,000 in third-party liability coverage, plus $1,000,000 in uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. Contingent collision and comprehensive coverage also applies if the driver has personal coverage, though it comes with a $2,500 deductible. If you were injured during an active ride, our Lyft accident lawyers ensure you pursue every layer of insurance available — including medical expense benefits under occupational accident insurance, if applicable.
Our rideshare attorneys investigate all potentially liable parties: Lyft, the driver, and third parties. We help you recover for medical bills, pain and suffering, and more.
Lyft drivers must meet strict requirements. If they failed to do so, our team uses that information to strengthen your claim and prove negligence.

Yes — but it's limited. If the Lyft driver had the app on but hadn’t accepted a ride request, Lyft provides limited third-party liability coverage. This typically includes up to $50,000 per person and $100,000 per accident for bodily injury, plus $25,000 for property damage. Collision and comprehensive coverage is not available unless the driver has their own policy. If you're unsure which phase of coverage applies, our rideshare attorneys will help clarify your rights and maximize your compensation.
