UBER貼條沒被拿掉的僱主責任

Uber Technologies Inc. must face negligence claims by a woman who says she mistakenly got into a car bearing the company’s windshield decal and was subsequently raped by the driver.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Jacqueline Corley in San Francisco ruled Friday the woman could proceed on claims that Uber should have instructed the alleged assailant, a suspended driver for the ride-hailing service, to remove and return the decal. The victim claims the Uber logo gave her assurance she was getting a “safe ride.”

Corley’s decision reinstates the case based on an amended complaint. Uber got the original lawsuit dismissed last November after Corley decided the rape did not take place within the scope of the driver’s employment.
