❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How does Uber’s insurance coverage work in Florida?
Uber provides varying levels of insurance coverage depending on the driver’s status at the time of the accident. For example, if the driver is en route to pick up a passenger or during a trip, Uber’s insurance may cover up to $1 million in liability.
What if the Uber driver was not at fault?
If another driver caused the accident, you might pursue a claim against that driver’s insurance. However, Uber’s uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage may also apply.
Can I sue Uber directly for my injuries?
Generally, Uber classifies its drivers as independent contractors, which can complicate direct lawsuits against the company. However, depending on the circumstances, there may be legal avenues to pursue.
How long do I have to file a claim after an Uber accident in Florida?
Florida’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally four years from the date of the accident.
