What matters in your case
Multiple responsible parties
Another driver, a vehicle owner, an employer, or a commercial entity may share responsibility depending on the facts.
Competing insurers
Personal and platform policies may investigate coverage and fault separately, which can slow or complicate the claim.
Common questions
Can a passenger bring a claim?
An injured passenger may have claims against one or more responsible drivers and applicable insurers. The facts and available coverage need to be identified.
What if the rideshare driver was waiting for a request?
Whether the driver had accepted a ride can affect which insurance applies. Preserve app records and do not assume only the driver’s personal policy applies.
Should I report the crash in the app?
Preserve the trip record and follow reasonable reporting requirements, but avoid broad recorded statements or releases before understanding the claim.
