A dedicated North Providence Uber & Lyft accident attorney from the Law Offices of Michael F. Campopiano can make all the difference.

  • Pursue Uber or Lyft’s $1 million commercial policy when the driver was on an active trip, or the correct contingent coverage for other phases
  • Access the rideshare companies’ uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage when another driver caused the crash and lacked adequate insurance
  • Investigate the driver’s background for negligent hiring or retention arguments against the rideshare company where applicable
  • Take your case to trial before the Providence County Superior Court if any insurer refuses fair compensation

The law

Understanding Rhode Island Rideshare Accident Law in North Providence

Uber and Lyft crashes in North Providence turn on which insurance phase applied at the moment of the collision. When the app is off, only the driver’s personal policy applies; when the driver is logged in and waiting, roughly $50,000/$100,000 in contingent coverage applies; and during an active trip, a $1 million commercial liability policy applies. As an innocent passenger, you can recover no matter which driver was at fault.

Because Rhode Island is an at-fault state, a rideshare claim combines the negligent driver’s liability with the layered Uber/Lyft coverage. You have three years to file under R.I. Gen. Laws § 9-1-14, and preserving the in-app trip record is critical. Disputed claims are tried before the Providence County Superior Court.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Uber & Lyft Accident in North Providence

Straight answers, no legalese. Still have a question? A real person answers, day or night.

(401) 288-3888

Coverage depends on the driver’s app status. App off: only the driver’s personal policy. App on, waiting: roughly $50,000/$100,000 contingent coverage. Active trip: a $1 million commercial liability policy.

As an innocent passenger you can recover no matter which driver was at fault. During an active trip, the $1 million policy and the company’s UM/UIM coverage are typically available to you.

If the driver was on an active trip, Uber or Lyft’s $1 million commercial policy generally applies. If they were only logged in and waiting, the lower contingent coverage applies.

During an active trip, Uber and Lyft carry uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage that can compensate passengers and the rideshare driver.

Three years from the crash (RI Gen. Law § 9-1-14). These cases involve multiple insurers and time-sensitive electronic records, so act quickly.

The in-app trip record — screenshot the ride status immediately, before the screen clears, since it establishes the coverage phase and the driver’s information.

Direct corporate suits face the independent-contractor defense, but the $1 million Phase 3 policy is accessible without one. Negligent hiring or retention claims may create direct liability where the company knew of a driver’s unsafe history.

Value depends on injury severity, medical costs, lost income, and which coverage phase applied. The $1 million active-trip policy means seriously injured passengers often have meaningful coverage available.
