Deadlines and Legal Framework
Lyft's insurance generally scales with the driver's app activity: contingent coverage when in driver mode with no match, and up to $1 million in liability coverage once matched with a passenger or during a ride. Establishing which period applies is often the key to your claim.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who pays if my Lyft driver caused the accident?
+It depends on the driver's app status at the time — Lyft's commercial policy may apply if they were matched with a passenger or on a trip, while a lesser or personal policy may apply otherwise.
I was a pedestrian hit by a Lyft driver — do I have a claim?
+Yes, if negligence is proven. Depending on the driver's app status, Lyft's insurance, the driver's personal policy, or both may be responsible.
What if the Lyft driver was waiting for a match when the crash happened?
+Lyft typically provides limited contingent coverage in that period, which can still leave a gap — we review your options, including your own insurance, to close it.
