Who Is Responsible for a Rideshare Accident?

As in any other traffic accident, your injury claim will be founded on proving liability and damages involved in the event. In a rideshare accident, the number of potentially liable parties is more complex than other accidents. For this reason, injury claims for rideshare accidents can be more complicated and challenging.

Those who may be responsible include:

  • Your Uber or Lyft driver, in which case their own personal insurer may be responsible for your claim
  • The Uber or Lyft company, in which case the company’s insurer may be responsible
  • Another driver on the road, who will then be held responsible through their insurer

The complications arise due to an ongoing controversy in how rideshare companies classify their drivers. These companies often insist that their drivers are independent contractors instead of employees, which they then claim absolves Uber or Lyft of any responsibility for the accident. This differs significantly from trucking companies and other corporations with drivers who are classified as employees, thus making the company’s insurer responsible. Because of this complication, injury claims in rideshare accidents can be extremely complex.

Establishing liability and which insurer should be held responsible means considering whether the driver was:

  • Using the rideshare app
  • En route to a pickup
  • Driving a customer
