Lyft's purpose is to serve and connect
Our communities want affordable transportation. That's why we're focused on modernizing unreasonable insurance requirements without compromising essential protections.

Insurance is by far the biggest expense on every ride. By modernizing these burdensome regulations, we can decrease ride costs and increase earnings, helping drivers maximize their income and their time.
