If you are riding in either Uber or Lyft and the vehicle gets into an accident that causes passengers injuries, the policy covers the driver up to $1 million in liability in certain scenarios. Under California law, companies like Uber and Lyft are considered transportation network companies (TNCs). If the driver who caused the accident does not have insurance or is underinsured, the rideshare company’s UM/UIM policy would generally cover the damages, up to the $1 million per accident limit.
