person who caused a car crash can be held liable for the resulting damages. Georgia requires Lyft and other rideshare companies to carry liability insurance coverage of up to one million dollars. However, this coverage only applies when an attorney can prove that the Lyft driver was at fault for the collision.
Lyft isn’t required to provide insurance coverage if a driver isn’t logged into the app at the time of the accident. For example, if the driver was not active on the app and on their way home and they were involved in a collision, the driver’s insurance policy would be active, not Lyft’s.
