You don't? UPS can't stop its drivers from making mistakes.
Uber can absolutely fix known issues in its vehicles.
If you have more control, you have more liability.
Edit: Uber probably has product liability. Which is very different from liability for an employee's actions.
- jdminhbg 10y agoYou're sort of begging the question with the phrasing "known issues." If UPS knows but doesn't care that its drivers are knocking back 4 beers at lunch, that's a separate problem from a simple distracted driver rear-ending someone. Here, once Uber found out there was an issue with right hook turns, they took steps to mitigate (instructing human drivers to take over in those situations and working on a software fix), so they're not ignoring known issues.
