Florida Uber driver shoots passenger after getting attacked over drop off location: Report

Police told WPLG that the passenger and driver argued about the drop-off location before the driver was attacked.

Uber drivers don't have much if any protection under Florida law. Not good at all. 

Changes must be forthcoming. Will workers compensation apply?

Uber Can’t Force Crash Victim to Arbitration

Big news, because the terms of use do require arbitration. 

Uber cannot compel a passenger seriously injured in a crash involving an Uber driver to go to arbitration over his $63 million damages claim without a trial.
