It sounds like something out of a movieābut itās happening right here in Miami.
Uber has filed a federal lawsuit against a local Miami law firm and affiliated medical clinics, alleging a massive staged crash operation designed to defraud the insurance system. According to the suit, drivers were paid to pretend to be in accidents while claiming to be on Uber trips. The goal? To file fake injury claims, inflate medical treatments, and collect large insurance settlementsāsometimes up to $1 million per accident.

Who Pays the Price for These Scams?
Unfortunately, it’s honest drivers like you.
When insurance companies lose millions to fraud, they donāt just eat the costāthey pass it down. Thatās why Miami-Dade drivers have seen their premiums spike over 14% since 2022, and why those labeled as āhigh-riskā (due to a DUI, accident, or even just a lapse in coverage) often see even steeper increases.
What Is a High-Risk Driver?
High-risk drivers include those who have:
- DUIs or DWI offenses
- Multiple speeding or traffic violations
- At-fault accidents
- Lapses in insurance coverage
- Poor credit in some cases
Even if you’re driving responsibly now, your past may still be costing you hundreds more per year.
