Optional injury protection is a coverage that you can buy from Uber for $0.024 per mile that is deducted from drivers’ earnings each trip. Coverage would include:

• Disability Payments. When a covered accident prevents a driver from working, Uber gives an earning replacement of $500 per week maximum.
• Medical Expenses. Any accident related medical expenses would be covered up to $1,000,000.
• Survivor Benefits. In the event of a fatal accident, family members are offered a lump sum payment up to $150,000 from this coverage.
