What is Rideshare Insurance?

Rideshare insurance is specialised car insurance tailored for drivers working for rideshare companies. Unlike personal auto insurance, rideshare insurance covers the specific risks encountered by drivers using their personal cars for business purposes. This coverage ensures that drivers are safeguarded during all stages of their ridesharing operations—from awaiting ride requests to transporting passengers to their destinations.

Why do I need rideshare
insurance?

Personal car insurance policies typically do not provide coverage for accidents or damages that happen while you are driving for rideshare services. Rideshare insurance covers you throughout the ridesharing process, including:

  • When your ridesharing app is running, but you have no passengers in your vehicle. 
  • Whilst en route to collect your passenger.
  • During the trip, when your rideshare passengers are in the car. 

Having the right insurance protects you from costly liability claims, medical bills, and car repairs.

Is rideshare insurance required by law?

Requirements vary by state, but many regions and rideshare companies mandate specific insurance coverage.

How much does rideshare insurance cost?

Costs depend on your location, driving history, vehicle type, and how often you drive for rideshare.

What insurance do I need for ridesharing?

Rideshare platforms like Uber, Didi and Ola have specific insurance requirements for drivers. For example, DiDi requires that drivers have a current third-party damage or comprehensive insurance cover in addition to CTP (Compulsory Third Party) Insurance.
