It depends on the situation. In Washington, several different insurance policies might apply, and the one that pays will depend on your role in the crash. The key question is who was at fault and what your connection is to the rideshare vehicle. For example: You were a rideshare driver and another driver caused the crash You were a passenger in an Uber or Lyft, and either your driver or another driver was negligent You were an innocent third party hit by an Uber or Lyft driver Each scenario triggers different insurance layers, including the rideshare company\u2019s coverage, the at?fault driver\u2019s insurance, and sometimes your own policy.   What should I do after a rideshare accident? Always call 911, get medical attention, and gather information from the driver, passengers, and witnesses. Take photos of the vehicles, scene, and injuries. Report the crash to the rideshare company through its app. Then, contact an attorney before speaking with any insurance adjusters. Can I sue Uber or Lyft directly? In most cases, your claim will be handled through the rideshare company\u2019s insurance provider rather than suing the company itself. However, if corporate negligence played a role in the accident, there may be grounds for direct legal action. Do I need a lawyer for a rideshare accident claim? You always have the choice to manage a claim on your own. Rideshare accidents often involve multiple insurance companies and complex coverage rules. An experienced lawyer can sort through these details, protect your rights, and pursue full compensation for your losses.  ","source_bloq_id":626559,"bloq_type":"bloq-faqs","position":1,"word_count":272,"citeable":true},{"section_id":"section_14","heading":"","full_text":"Injured in a Crash?
