So they were in an Uber, and ordered food on Uber eats, then the Uber driver crashed? Did I read that right?
Months previously the daughter, who was a minor, had set up Uber Eats and just clicked through the terms of service because it’s not like you have a choice, plus she was a kid.
The parents were seriously injured in an Uber crash, but the court sided with Uber that they could NOT sue because those terms of service were legally binding for all Uber interactions
I'm surprised we don't hear more about judges getting shanked for their shit reasoning.
