This has nothing to do with taxes. This is the German government thinking it's their responsibility to protect me from myself. It's arrogant and obnoxious. If I want to get into an Uber knowing I'm not getting any money if I get hurt, it's my prerogative.
- anon1385 12y agoSomebody who wants to drive around without insurance calling others arrogant and obnoxious. You couldn't make it up.
- aianus 12y agoAs a passenger I don't care if the Uber driver has insurance covering me and I should be able to choose to ride in one anyways.
- Xylakant 12y agoNo, this is the german population that requires that if your uber driver crashes into a bicycle rider (me) on the road, that I get paid for my injury. It's not about you, it's not arrogant that I want to be compensated if I get hurt and it's certainly not obnoxious.
- aianus 12y agoThe article only refers to 'passenger safety' and how 'passengers may not be covered'.
- Xylakant 12y agoRight. I implied from actually reading the source articles and injunction the more correct "Uber cars are usually in violation of their insurance terms and not covered at all." BBC is slightly off here.
