Does Lime Provide Insurance Coverage?

Some of the most popular rideshare services openly offer insurance coverage to their riders (and their drivers under specific circumstances). However, if you have attempted to find information about Lime scooter accident insurance, your searches might have proved to be unsuccessful. Important Steps to take after a Lime AccidentBased on California law, parties who ride electric scooters are not required to have insurance coverage. As mentioned above, there is a lack of insurance information for Lime scooter accidents even though Lime scooter accidents have become common. Because California law does not require insurance coverage to use electric scooters, it makes sense that Lime does not provide clear insurance coverage for their riders. Although there is not clear Lime scooter injury insurance information, Lime does have insurance. In many cases, up and coming companies, such as Lime, are self-insured. What does it mean to be self-insured? The majority of companies purchase insurance coverage from insurance companies that specialize in providing insurance products to meet company needs. When a company is self-insured, they are financially responsible for any claims that could arise. If you were injured in an accident on a Lime electric scooter, you might have grounds to file a claim against the company.

Lime’s Coverage

What does the Lime scooter insurance for accident cover? Could injured victims expect to be covered by Lime under all circumstances? Because this information is not easy to find online, contacting Lime is essential. Upon contacting Lime, you might have come across the following statement or variations of the following statement: Lime cannot cover any injuries that result from the negligent actions of Lime users. What would account as negligent actions of the Lime user? A few examples of user negligence include the following: riding the electric scooter under the influence of drugs or alcohol, weaving in and out of traffic, and failing to follow traffic signals, for example. If Lime users suffer injuries and Lime can verify that the user was not at fault, then the company will assume financial responsibility for the damages suffered. I was not at fault for my accident. Does that automatically make Lime responsible for my claim? Even if you were not at fault for the accident, liability for your injuries could be placed on another party (such as an auto driver that struck you while you were on the scooter). However, if no other parties were involved in your accident and your actions did not cause your accident, Lime could be financially responsible for your injuries. For more information regarding the Lime scooter accident insurance that could apply to your scooter injury claim, you must contact our law firm as soon as possible.
