Uber & Lyft Accidents Are Different from Typical Car Crashes

Rideshare collisions involve overlapping insurance policies, corporate rules, and Arizona traffic laws. The coverage available after an Uber or Lyft crash can change depending on whether the driver had the app on, was waiting for a ride, or was actively transporting a passenger.

Phillips Law Group’s rideshare accident attorneys can investigate which insurance policies apply, deal directly with adjusters for Uber and Lyft, and pursue every dollar of compensation the law allows for your injuries and losses.

Whether you were a passenger, rideshare driver, pedestrian, bicyclist, or another motorist hit by a rideshare vehicle, you have rights under Arizona law and may be able to seek compensation for medical care, lost income, and more.

Common Uber & Lyft Accident Scenarios We Handle

  • Uber or Lyft passengers injured when their driver causes a collision
  • Passengers hurt when another vehicle crashes into their rideshare
  • Drivers of other cars hit by an Uber or Lyft vehicle
  • Pedestrians or cyclists struck by rideshare drivers
  • Rideshare drivers injured by uninsured or underinsured motorists
  • Serious injuries from distracted, speeding, or impaired rideshare drivers

Do not assume the first offer from an insurance company is fair. Talk to a lawyer who understands rideshare claims before you sign anything.

Understanding Uber & Lyft Insurance in Arizona

Rideshare insurance is layered and depends on what the driver was doing at the time of the crash. Phillips Law Group can sort through these details and identify all potential sources of coverage.

App Off

If the rideshare app is off, the driver is typically covered only by their personal auto insurance policy, and the rideshare company coverage does not apply.

App On, Waiting for a Ride

When the app is on and the driver is available for requests, limited liability coverage from the rideshare company may apply if the driver is at fault and the personal policy is not enough.

Trip Accepted or In Progress

Once a ride has been accepted and while a passenger is being picked up or transported, higher liability limits and often uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage from the rideshare company may be available.

Determining which policy applies can be complex. Our team reviews police reports, app data, and insurance information to protect your rights at every step.

What to Do After an Uber or Lyft Accident in Phoenix

The steps you take after a rideshare collision can protect both your health and your legal rights. If you can safely do so, consider the following:

1. Call 911 and Get Medical Care

Report the crash to law enforcement and get evaluated by medical professionals, even if your pain seems minor at first. Some serious injuries appear hours or days later.

2. Document and Report the Crash

Take photos of the vehicles, scene, and visible injuries. Get contact and insurance information, including the rideshare driver’s details, and report the incident through the Uber or Lyft app if you are a passenger.

3. Talk to a Lawyer Before the Insurance Company

Insurance adjusters may try to minimize your claim or get you to make statements that hurt your case. Contact a rideshare accident attorney as soon as possible to protect your interests.

Arizona Uber & Lyft Accident FAQs

Get straightforward answers to common questions we hear from rideshare passengers, drivers, and others hurt in Uber and Lyft crashes in Arizona.

These answers are general information, not legal advice. The best way to understand your rights is to talk directly with an attorney about your specific situation.

Do I have a case if I was a passenger in an Uber or Lyft that crashed?

You may. If you were a paying passenger and were injured in a crash, you could have a claim against the at-fault driver’s insurance and, in many situations, coverage through Uber or Lyft’s policies. Fault can rest with your rideshare driver, another driver, or both. An attorney can review police reports, app records, and insurance information to evaluate your options.

How long do I have to file a rideshare accident claim in Arizona?

Arizona generally applies a statute of limitations to personal injury cases, which is a deadline for filing a lawsuit. There can be exceptions and shorter deadlines in certain situations. Because evidence can fade quickly and legal time limits are strict, it is important to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible after your Uber or Lyft crash.

What if an uninsured or hit-and-run driver caused the crash?

If the at-fault driver is uninsured, underinsured, or flees the scene, there may still be options. Depending on the driver’s status in the rideshare app and the coverage purchased, uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage through the rideshare company or your own policy may help. Our team can review all potentially available coverages.

Will hiring a lawyer cost me anything up front?

No. Phillips Law Group handles rideshare accident cases on a contingency fee basis. That means you do not pay attorney’s fees unless we obtain compensation for you through a settlement or verdict. Your initial case evaluation is free and carries no obligation.

Should I accept the first settlement offer from the insurance company?

Insurance companies often move quickly with low offers that may not cover all of your medical treatment, lost wages, and future needs. Once you accept, you typically cannot ask for more later. Before signing any release or accepting money, it is wise to have an attorney review the offer and explain whether it is fair in light of your injuries.
