Insurance Coverage in Oceanside Uber Accidents
Uber drivers are regular people who use their personal vehicles to transport passengers. Like any driver, they can make mistakes, and accidents happen. The insurance coverage for these drivers can vary depending on several factors, including whether or not the driver was on duty and whether they had a passenger at the time of the crash.
In California, ride-sharing companies must provide secondary insurance coverage from the moment the app is turned on, not just when a driver has accepted a ride or is transporting passengers. Additionally, drivers are required to maintain the following primary liability coverage:
- $50,000 per person for personal injury or death.
- $100,000 per occurrence for personal injury or death.
- $30,000 for property damage.
Moreover, rideshare companies like Uber (and Lyft and others) must provide at least $1 million in excess liability coverage per incident.
