Ride Assurance

Every Private Ride.
Fully Covered.

Insurance you pay for by the mile, not by the month.

Ride Assurance is the commercial coverage on every private ride you run through the HUM app. It operates under HUM's operating authority, which is why you don't need a commercial policy of your own to start your own private driving business.

You pay for it per mile driven, deducted from your driver wallet as you complete trips. Drive more, pay more. Don't drive, pay nothing.

Cost

What Ride Assurance Costs.

Ride Assurance is billed per mile driven on private rides, at a rate set by your state. It is deducted automatically from your HUM driver wallet as trips complete. There is no monthly minimum and no charge on miles you don't drive.

Rates vary by state because commercial auto insurance is priced by state. Where required coverage limits and claims costs are higher, the rate is higher. These are the real cost of coverage in your market, not a markup.

Ride Assurance Rates by State

State Rate per mile
Idaho $0.27
Ohio $0.35
Alabama $0.38
Arizona $0.44
Tennessee $0.46
California $0.60
Georgia $0.99
Florida $1.13

How to price for it

You set your own rates on HUM. Add your state's Ride Assurance rate to your per-mile price and the coverage pays for itself.

Private client rates are set by you and your client, not by an algorithm. Most drivers find their clients will pay well above platform rates for a driver they know and trust.

Questions

Ride Assurance FAQ.

Why is Ride Assurance billed per mile instead of included in my subscription?

Because you shouldn't pay for coverage you didn't use. A flat rate charges the driver who ran 80 miles the same as the driver who ran 800. Per-mile means your cost tracks your work. Slow week, smaller bill. No minimum, no charge for sitting still.

How is it collected?

Automatically from your HUM driver wallet as each private ride completes. You'll see the charge on the trip in the app. Nothing to submit, nothing to remember.

What happens if my wallet balance is low?

Your wallet needs a positive balance to accept private rides. You can top it up in the app at any time.

Does Ride Assurance apply to my Uber and Lyft trips?

No. It applies only to private rides logged in the HUM app. Your other platform work is unaffected.

Why is my state's rate higher than another state's?

Required coverage limits and claims costs vary by state. The rate reflects what coverage actually costs in your market.

Does HUM profit from Ride Assurance?

No. Ride Assurance is a pass-through. Every dollar goes to the cost of the commercial policy that covers your private rides. HUM does not take money out of it, and HUM does not earn anything by taking a percentage of your fares, because HUM does not take a percentage of your fares.

Can I opt out?

No. Ride Assurance is what makes your private rides insured and legal. Driving private clients without it would void your personal auto policy and put you outside your state's for-hire rules.

How Coverage Works

Log the Ride. It's Covered.

Coverage flows automatically through HUM's app. There's nothing extra to buy, activate, or file. If the ride is in the app, it's covered.

No Commercial Endorsement
No separate commercial insurance policy required to drive on the HUM platform.

HUM's commercial liability covers you while you're on a trip in the app. Your personal auto insurance continues to apply when you're off it.

Every Trip, Pre-Arranged
Coverage runs the whole trip — en route, on board, and through drop-off.

Every HUM ride is booked ahead with a client you already know. There's no cruising and waiting on a dispatch. You log the ride, and you're covered from the moment you head to the pickup.

Proof You Can Show
A Certificate of Insurance you can hand to a client who asks for one.

Schools, hotels, corporate accounts, and travel agents want proof of insurance before they'll refer anyone. HUM's certificate is current and downloadable, so you have an answer.

Coverage disclaimer: The information on this page is provided for general informational purposes only and describes coverage available to drivers while active on the HUM platform. HUM's commercial auto policy provides coverage during Periods 1, 2, and 3 as defined by the applicable insurance standard. This coverage applies while a driver is logged into the HUM app — it does not replace a driver's personal auto insurance, which continues to apply when the driver is off the platform. Contingent physical damage coverage during Periods 2 and 3 requires that drivers maintain their own comprehensive and collision coverage at all other times. Coverage details are subject to the full terms, conditions, and exclusions of HUM's active commercial auto insurance policy. Download the Certificate of Insurance above for complete policy details.
