Why the Endorsement Matters
The highest risk period for Montana drivers is Period 1 — when the app is on but no ride has been accepted.
Without an endorsement, you may face:
- Claim denial
- Policy cancellation
- Personal liability exposure
Legal coverage thresholds are explained in Montana rideshare insurance requirements.
How Uber and Lyft Coverage Fits In
Both Uber and Lyft provide $1,000,000 liability coverage during active ride periods. However, they do not replace your personal auto insurance.
Maintaining a properly structured personal policy ensures you remain fully protected.
How to Choose the Right Montana Rideshare Policy
- Confirm endorsement availability in writing
- Compare at least three quotes
- Review deductible alignment carefully
- Reassess coverage annually
