A woman died, and your description of that is "a legal jackpot"?

  They must hold Uber stock to be simping this hard for them

    Just highlighting the hypocrisy of our legal system. All victims of traffic accidents in California are equal, but some are more equal than others [when the perpetrator is an independent contractor for Uber, rather than an illegal immigrant driving a commercial truck].

      Then your point is? One should not make Uber pay $40M to the fatal victim's family, or one should make the driver pay $40M to the victim's family (which the driver definitely does not have $40M), or one should award all the traffic fatalities the same amount? In a just world, I may concur with third, but don't let the perfect be the enemy of good.

  100 other people died that very day in traffic accidents. I'd wager all 100 of their families got far less than $40,000,000. Meanwhile, if you get hit by an illegal immigrant driving a commercial truck in California, you get nothing, while the criminal is set free back on the road: https://www.dhs.gov/news/2026/09/18/ice-lodges-detainer-illegal-alien-who-killed-two-people-while-driving-semi-truck https://www.dhs.gov/news/2026/09/18/ice-lodges-detainer-ille...

    How reliable is this information considering the trump administration hates California and other blue states?
