As an Uber driver, you need more than just regular car insurance to protect yourself legally and financially. You need ridesharing insurance. This kind of coverage is meant to protect against certain hazards that come with driving for a living. It should cover damage to your own car as well as harm you might do to other cars or property while you're working. It also needs to cover injuries to other people, which is essential so that you aren't left unprotected in case of an accident.
Driving with Uber? P2P Insurance helps you find the right cover, from comprehensive and third-party to personal accident and public liability. We’re a broker, so we match you with insurers who understand rideshare, letting you drive with peace of mind.
If your car causes damage to someone else’s property during a covered incident, Third Party Property Damage Cover will take care of the costs.
If you’re injured while working as an Uber driver, Personal Accident Cover can help cover the costs associated with your injuries.
If someone is injured or their property is damaged as a result of your Uber driving, Public Liability Cover provides protection against the associated legal and compensation costs.
Your journey is unique, so is your insurance. In Australia, rideshare cover is designed around your vehicle, driving history, and lifestyle, giving you the right protection without paying for what you don’t need.

Yes. Most personal car insurance policies don’t cover rideshare driving. To be properly protected while using the Uber app, you need rideshare-specific insurance that covers you during passenger trips and while waiting for ride requests.
Typically, no. Most personal policies exclude commercial or rideshare activities. Driving for Uber without proper rideshare insurance could leave you financially exposed if you have an accident.
Key coverages include third-party property damage, comprehensive vehicle insurance, personal accident protection, and public liability cover. Optional extras like hire car replacement and windscreen repair can also be valuable.
Rideshare insurance premiums vary based on factors like your vehicle type, driving history, location, and how many hours you drive for Uber. Although it may cost more than standard insurance, it provides the protection you need for your commercial driving activities.
If you get into an accident while driving for Uber, call your insurance company asap. Tell them if you were waiting for a ride, on a ride, or not online. These things are usually covered under your rideshare policy, and prompt, precise reporting helps you get back on the road faster.
