Rideshare accidents involve multiple layers of insurance — Uber's commercial policy, the driver's personal policy, and possibly the other driver's coverage. Get a broad preliminary Uber accident claim-value range.

About the preliminary range
The calculator is a rule-based educational tool. It considers the limited information entered and displays a broad, gross preliminary claim-value range. It does not use a fixed medical-bill multiplier or a disclosed database of Texas settlements or verdicts, and it is not legal advice, an appraisal, or a prediction of settlement, verdict, or net recovery.
How Uber accident settlements work
Potential rideshare coverage depends on the driver's app status, trip status, policy terms, responsible parties, and governing requirements. Advertised policy limits do not automatically establish coverage, responsibility, damages, or the amount recoverable in a particular claim.
Factors that may affect an Uber accident evaluation
An active ride may involve different insurance provisions than a driver's personal use, but the applicable policy and its terms must be verified. Documented treatment, functional limitations, income loss, causation, responsibility, defenses, and collectability may all affect an individual evaluation.
Uber vs. regular car accident settlements
Rideshare collisions may involve personal-auto, TNC, UM/UIM or other coverage depending on driver status, policy terms and Texas law. Applicable policies, limits and responsible parties must be identified and verified; rideshare status does not imply higher recoverable limits.

There is no dependable average for an Uber-related claim. App and trip status may affect which coverage is potentially available, but policy terms, responsibility, causation, documented damages, defenses, and collectability require individual review.
Does Uber pay for injuries in an accident?
Uber's insurance can cover injuries when the driver is at fault and the app is active. Coverage depends on whether the driver was offline, waiting for a ride, en route, or on a trip.
Can I sue Uber for an accident?
Rideshare responsibility and insurance depend on the driver's status, applicable policies, the facts and Texas law. Medical documentation may be relevant to injury and damages, but no single documentation step guarantees or maximizes recovery.
This tool produces a preliminary, non-binding estimate based on the information you provide and general personal-injury valuation methods. It is not legal advice, not a guarantee of any outcome, and not a substitute for review by a licensed attorney. Actual settlements and verdicts vary widely based on evidence, jurisdiction, insurance coverage, and many other factors.
