Lyft Accidents in Los Angeles: Protecting Your Rights After a Rideshare Collision

Rideshare services like Lyft have transformed how we travel across Los Angeles, offering convenience at our fingertips. But as more Lyft drivers hit the roads, accidents involving these vehicles have become increasingly common. Whether you were a passenger, another driver, or a pedestrian, a Lyft accident can leave you dealing with serious injuries, stress, and financial hardship.

At Pacific Coast Injury Law Center, we are dedicated to helping victims of Lyft accidents navigate the legal system and recover the compensation they deserve. Our experienced team understands the unique challenges these cases present, and we’re ready to stand by your side every step of the way.

Unlike standard car accidents, Lyft-related crashes involve a third party—Lyft, the company itself. This adds layers of legal complexity due to their tiered insurance structure, which depends on the driver’s status at the time of the accident:

• Driver Not Logged Into the App:
  Lyft provides no coverage. The driver’s personal auto insurance applies.

• Driver Logged In but Not Yet Matched With a Passenger:
  Lyft provides limited coverage:

  • $50,000 for bodily injury per person

  • $100,000 total per accident

  • $30,000 for property damage

• Driver En Route or Transporting a Passenger:
  Lyft provides up to $1 million in liability coverage and an additional $1 million in uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage.

Understanding which policy applies can be confusing without legal guidance. That’s where our attorneys step in—to help clarify your rights and hold the responsible parties accountable.

What You May Be Entitled To After a Lyft Accident

If you’ve been injured in a Lyft accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be eligible for compensation for:

• Medical expenses (current and future)

• Lost wages and loss of future earning potential

• Pain and suffering

• Emotional distress

• Long-term or permanent disability

• Property damage

At Pacific Coast Injury Law Center, we are committed to pursuing the full value of your claim and ensuring your voice is heard.
