Understanding Insurance Coverage in Uber Eats Accidents
Uber provides different levels of insurance coverage, depending on what the driver was doing at the time of your accident:
- When a driver is waiting for delivery requests, minimal coverage applies.
- Once they accept an order and are en route to pick up food or actively delivering, Uber’s $1 million liability policy typically kicks in.
However, gaps exist. Many drivers don’t realize their personal auto insurance excludes coverage for commercial activities.
Third parties, including Uber itself, may also be liable depending on the circumstances.
At Monge & Associates, we thoroughly investigate every potential coverage source to secure the highest possible compensation in your case.
Common Causes of Uber Eats Accidents in Cincinnati
Uber Eats delivery drivers face several hazards on Cincinnati roads, creating the perfect storm for accidents:
- Distracted driving from constant app notifications and GPS navigation
- Aggressive driving behaviors driven by pressure to complete deliveries quickly and maintain high ratings
- Dangerous stops, including double-parking in busy neighborhoods and blocking traffic lanes
- Weather-related accidents during rain, snow, or ice
- Driver inexperience with local one-way streets and confusing downtown intersections
- Fatigue from working extended shifts to maximize earnings
Compensation Available for Uber Eats Accident Victims
If you have been injured in an Uber Eats accident, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical expenses, including emergency care, surgery, and ongoing treatment
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity if injuries prevent you from working
- Pain and suffering from physical injuries and emotional trauma
- Property damage to repair or replace your vehicle
- Rehabilitation costs for physical therapy and recovery services
Ohio follows a comparative negligence system with a 50% bar, meaning you can recover damages as long as you are less than 50% at fault for the accident.
However, your settlement will be reduced by your share of liability.
