In the United States, ride-sharing applications have become one of the main means used by the population to move around, especially in major cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, among many others. However, accidents in these vehicles can occur at any time, so it is important to have the help of car accident lawyers.
According to figures from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, NHTSA, during recent years accidents in ride-sharing applications such as Uber or Lyft have recorded an increase of between 2 and 4%.

How much can I receive as compensation in Uber or Lyft accidents?
Through compensation for Uber or Lyft accidents, you will have the opportunity to access a certain amount of money that the application's insurance will provide, as long as the insurance contracted by the owner of the vehicle in question has coverage less than the established amounts.
For example, in cases where the accident causes damage to a person's property, the insurance will grant compensation of up to $25,000 and up to $100,000 in cases where the accident was caused by the driver's liability.
Additionally, if the accident also caused injuries to a person involved, the insurance will grant compensation that will cover up to $50,000 of the necessary expenses.
