What is Nexar's Rideshare Protect Program?

This program is a Safe Driving package for professional drivers working within the NYC area (as well as other locations in the near future). For a monthly fee, drivers receive a discount on their TLC liability insurance. In addition, drivers receive a Nexar-ready dashcam, and the many practical benefits from the Nexar safety features, such as collision reports.

How do I join the program?

Who is eligible for the discount?

• Drivers who hold a Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) license and have signed up to the Nexar Professional Drivers Program plan
• Drivers who own the cars they drive professionally.
  Insurance companies cannot provide a discount to an individual if that individual rents their car from a fleet
• Drivers must reach a minimum threshold of 25 driving hours per week or 100 driving hours per month, all while using the Nexar app. 

Which insurance companies provide a discount?

• Eligible drivers in our Professional Drivers Program receive a discount on their TLC liability policy
• Currently, drivers who are insured by either American Transit or Hereford, may apply for the insurance discount. Inshur has also partnered with Nexar. Click here for information.
