Florida Laws Will Impact the Outcome of Your Claim
Florida civil laws, like FLSA § 627.748, address insurance requirements for transportation network companies (TNCs) like Uber and Lyft. These requirements determine how much you can recover when pursuing a settlement or civil court award. However, the driver’s status determines the liability insurance policy.
The Dania Beach Uber/Lyft accident lawyer at Rosen Injury Law, P.A. will investigate your accident to identify the driver’s status and liable parties:
- If the driver is not logged into the app: The driver’s auto insurance policy applies. The policy must meet Florida’s minimum requirements, which are $10,000 in personal injury protection (PIP) and $10,000 in property damage liability (PDL).
- The driver is logged into the app but has not accepted a ride. The TNC’s insurance policy provides limited coverage. Under the law, the minimums are $50,000 for death and bodily injury per person, $100,000 for death and bodily injury per accident, and $25,000 for property damage.
- The driver has accepted a ride or is transporting a passenger: The TNC’s insurance policy provides higher coverage limits, $1,000,000 in death, bodily injury, and property damage.
