Uber Technologies Inc. sued an auto liability insurer for what it says is a consistent pattern of failing to honor coverage for New York City ride-share drivers who get into accidents.
American Transit Insurance Co.’s “unreasonable practices” handling claims has resulted in 23 lawsuits brought against Uber and its drivers over crashes involving bodily injuries, leaving the ride-share giant to pay “substantial amounts” to defend itself, according to the complaint filed late Friday in federal court in New York.
