Why Uber Accident Claims are Different from Other Motor Vehicle Accident Claims 

When you are injured in an accident that is caused by negligence on the part of another person or entity, you file a personal injury claim against the at-fault party. This will enable you to recover compensation for your damages from the at-fault party or their insurance policy. When the at-fault party is a driver employed by a company, you will file your claim against the company. Transport companies take insurance to cover their drivers. You will be compensated for this insurance cover. 

However, when an accident is caused by an Uber driver, there are different conditions you will need to consider in order to determine how to retrieve compensation for your damages. 

1. The accident was caused by the Uber driver but the driver had no passenger and the app was off 

In this scenario, the Uber driver is considered to be off the clock. This means that Uber’s insurance coverage does not apply to the accident. You will have to seek compensation from the driver’s own insurance policy. 

2. The accident was caused by another driver 

If you were a passenger in a vehicle driven by an Uber driver and were injured in an accident involving another motorist, you will need to seek compensation from the at-fault motorist. However, if the at-fault motorist is uninsured or underinsured, you may file a claim against Uber’s insurance policy. Uber’s insurance policy will provide coverage in addition to what the underinsured motorist’s policy provides. It only provides supplementary cover. 

3. The accident was caused by an Uber driver on the clock but with no passenger 

If you are involved in an accident caused by an Uber driver that is actively waiting for a request from a passenger or headed to pick up a passenger, you can seek compensation from Uber’s insurance policy. You will therefore receive coverage from Uber. 

4. If the accident was caused by an Uber driver who is transporting a passenger 

If you were involved in an accident with an Uber driver who was transporting a passenger at the time, you can file a claim against Uber’s car insurance policy.

Frequently Asked Questions about Uber Accidents in Virginia

Will I be banned from the Uber app if I make a claim against them?

No. If you bring a valid claim against Uber’s insurance policy, you will not be penalized. Uber is not likely to retaliate against an app user for being injured in an accident and making a claim for compensation. You can therefore make a claim confident that you will still be able to use the app even after receiving compensation for your injuries. 

Make an appointment with Attorney Drew Page if you’re in doubt. Attorney Drew Page has represented many victims of Uber accidents. He will help you better understand your rights and options so you can make an informed decision on how to recover compensation for your injuries.

Are Uber drivers required to have insurance?

Yes. Uber requires drivers to obtain their own insurance. Drivers must maintain minimum coverage as they are not considered employees of the rideshare company. They are listed as independent contractors. However, Uber does provide additional insurance that becomes active when the driver accepts a request from an app user.

Uber accident claims can be very complex because Uber drivers are considered independent contractors. Attorney Drew Page is an experienced Virginia Uber accident lawyer.
