Many people believe that their personal auto policy will cover them if they drive for a ride-share company such as Uber or Lyft. Personal auto policies are designed to provide coverage for the personal use of a vehicle, such as driving for leisure or commuting to and from work. However, many policies specifically exclude coverage if their vehicle is used for business purposes.
The ride-share companies may provide coverage if you are driving a paying customer, but your personal auto policy may not cover you while you’re on your way to pick someone up or even while you’re waiting to be hired.
