Can they do this? I mean, if I'm driving my own car and have a permit in a state where CC is legal, how can they infringe upon my 2nd amendment right to bare arms?

Same for a passenger. How can they tell a law abiding citizen with a CC permit he cannot bring his gun into an Uber cab WHICH UBER DOES NOT OWN?

I also heard that if wanded and cleared for the ride on the way to the airport, that one can skip the line in airport security?

I have to think that's fake. If it isn't, so much for TSA and DHS! We'll just let little green rideshare companies take care of it.

This sounds like a lawsuit a-borning.

If you want to pick up a guy with a gun under his shirt that is your choice.

Good Luck -

So Uber having a rule against that will help? So I'm unarmed and he has a gun?

FUCK THAT!

"I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6"

Key word to all this = concealed

I'd gladly take a firing by Uber on the day I ever felt the need to pull it.

The problem with driving in this area is that you never know where the shift is going to take you. Driving in VA is no problem, but you're going to be crossing borders into DC and MD mulitple times per shift.

As a passenger, fuck Uber. Until an uber car gets added to that list of restricted places that includes churches, courthouses, schools, etc., Uber can pound sand.

Uber maintains that their drivers are independent contractors, not employees. Yet they dictate everything their "contractor" does or doesn't do---down to the most minute detail. Just like a company would do with it's, umm, employees.

They better be careful, they're close to having courts in several places rule that Uber drivers ARE employees. Game over if that happens.

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/18/business/uber-contests-california-labor-ruling-that-says-drivers-should-be-employees.html

Smart move by Uber. Keeps riders and cab drivers safe. Far to many people die from gun accidents. No need for Uber to get bad publicity are have a driver or passenger accidentally killed.

First of all, if a passenger or driver gets shot in an uber, it was no accident.

Also, the fine residents of SE DC love Uber since a single cab hasn't willingly crossed over the Anacostia into their turf in the past 50 years. And since concealed carry is practically banned in DC and MD, drivers can work SE and PGC without fear.

Guns are against my religion. It's a violation of my free association and free exercise rights to keep me from kicking these disgusting bullet-heathen out of my car.

Uber has every right to do this; companies can restrict first amendment rights when applicable, so no surprise about the 2nd amendment

Is it a good idea? Who knows? Seems like every carjacker and crook just got a wink from Uber that all their drivers will be unarmed... :/

Not when they're constantly in court arguing that their driving partners are independent contractors and not employees. In their ploy to avoid payroll and other employer taxes, Uber can only have it one way or the other.

If Uber's business plan is to simply manage and control a brown, unquestioning army of ESOLs driving jalopy Corollas & Civics, then they're well on their way. But the current model might not get them to the true goal of running autonomous cabs 24/7 which is still a decade or more away.

They are not infringing on your right to bare arms. They are infringing on your right to bear arms. Just sayin'.

Uber banning guns works for me. Why don't you just take another cab company that does allow guns. Also in VA it's illegal to transport a gun and ammo inside the car.

For open carry in a vehicle, the firearm must be "properly secured in a container or compartment within the vehicle" (ie glove box, center console, trunk, etc). The container/compartment does not have to be locked, the firearm may be within the reach of the driver or a passenger, and the firearm may be loaded. This does not preempt an employer from prohibiting firearms "at a place of employment if there is a company policy or signage prohibiting firearms on the premises."[3]

Furthermore, a "county or city may by ordinance make it unlawful for any person to transport, possess or carry a loaded shotgun or loaded rifle in any vehicle on any public street, road, or highway within such locality." However, this does not "apply to duly authorized law-enforcement officers or military personnel in the performance of their lawful duties, nor to any person who reasonably believes that a loaded rifle or shotgun is necessary for his personal safety in the course of his employment or business."

In addition, a firearm may be considered "open carry" in a vehicle if the firearm is openly visible, though this is not as well established as the "secured in a container/compartment" rule.

Uber will also not allow any alcohol in the passenger the compartment.

> Also in VA it's illegal to transport a gun and ammo inside the car.

You wrote that, followed by a bunch of information about how it is perfectly LEGAL in VA.

VA courts have ruled that "container" means "any closed container",
which includes, for example, a purse. (You do NOT need a concealed handgun permit for this.)

What is a CCW? There's now such thing in Virginia.

Uber (and Lyft has the same policy, btw) is perfectly within their rights to require this. You have to use their app; you can't hail them off the street. And the Terms Of Service (contract) that you agree to when you install and use their app (either as a driver or a passenger) has a "no firearms (or anything else)" clause that you have agreed to.

The could throw your ass out of the car, and maybe even sue you, but what they said they will do is simply blacklist you from using their service anymore.

They can tell their contractors and riders (both "customers" from Uber's perspective) how to operate the service; it's in the contract. If they were employers, they could obviously do it also. Just as a brick-and-mortar business can have a "NO GUNS" sign on the door.

It's stupid, but it's perfectly legal.


Personally, I would either just carry where they can't know (gun in my closed purse container or permit-concealed), and ignore them. Or just not use their services because they are an anti-gun business.

Getting out of an Uber/Lyft vehicle (http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/business/2013/08/lyft.jpg) makes you a "mark" for muggers. When trying to figure out which person to mug, pick the one from Lyft, not the one from the taxicab. (You also know that the taxi DRIVER has a gun, but I don't think the Uber/Lyft drivers handle cash, so you're just going to have to carjack them and get their credit cards and stuff.)

Yup, you have to hail from an approved credit account.

What would be the point of robbing an Uber driver? Uber is ALL credit card transactions.

Stolen credit cards and/or cell phones. It's a known problem.

Rumor is that genius Daron Wint took a "stolen" uber ride to and maybe back from NYC while he was on the lam.

But yeah, robbing an uber that's in your name is idiotic.

Any of you morons ever heard of Carjacking? There are people that will kill you for your car.

Too bad there aren't people who will kill you for being so dumb.

Unlike cabs uber drivers can only accept payment by mobile phone so its less likely they will be robbed but you never know what anyone may do

If you are such a fraidy cat that you can't take a cab ride without your little dick extender, then buy your own car. Otherwise, it's Uber's drivers' property, and you don't get a say in what they allow in it. Or is that concept too complicated for your simple fearful little quivering minds to grasp?

Well, look at it this way. Those who keep guns in the home are nearly four times as likely to die from a gunshot wound as the rest of us. Being a gun-tard is at least in some degree a self-correcting error.

It's really quite amazing how many of the severely weak-minded succumb to the fairytale delusions inherent in becoming a heat-packing John Wayne wannabe. As everyone else knows, it's all just a mask of phony strength and bravado adopted in hopes of hiding what is their actual state of severe dysfunction, weakness, and paranoia.

To sum up for the ignorant OP

Yes, they legally can

No, no one will rob drivers with no cash

No, there is nothing you can do but cry like a whiny bitch

They better watch out or they will soon find themselves providing benefits and doing taxes.

Why is it that conservatives rant about how business owners should be able to make their own decisions but when a business owner wants ban guns they picket a place and start yelling unconstitutional.

Typical guntards and conservatives. Fair weather constitution fans.

They actually HATE the US Constitution. It's way too liberal. They owe their faith and allegiance instead to the Bizarro Constitution, a ridiculous document that was written 200 years after the real one by a bunch of right-wing cowards and crackpots. Pretty treasonous behavior, all in all.

If I was an Uber driver, I wouldn't certainly try to find an attorney to take on Uber pro bono because this is BULLSHIT.

Uber is a private company that can implement whatever the hell policies/rules it wants. This America, damnit! If you don't like Uber's policies, don't drive for Uber.

Uber is a private company that can implement whatever the hell policies/rules it wants. This America, damnit! If you don't like Uber's policies, don't ride with Uber.

See how simple this is?

PS - Gun owners are not a 'protected class' (pun intended) and therefore can be discriminated against at-will. Cheers!

So you'd say the same if they banned beards, wearing clothing and other items and behavior associated with the religious practice of Muslims right?

I think the bigger complaint is going to be with the drivers. How can Uber deny their right to defend themselves in a state where gun ownership is legal?

When the driver is working under the auspices of Uber, Uber makes the rules. Same goes for UPS & FedEx drivers, etc.

FedEx and UPS drivers are employees. I think that makes a difference.

Not necessarily.

Even as contractors, the drivers are representing Uber, are agents of Uber (legally speaking) and therefore are required to adhere to Uber policies.

6/01/15 11:05 AM EDT

The Supreme Court ruled Monday in a favor of a Muslim woman denied a job at the Abercrombie & Fitch because she wore a religious headscarf.

In an 8-1 ruling remanding the workplace discrimination case back to the lower courts, the court said that Samantha Elauf only has to prove that her need for a religious accomodation was the motivating factor in Abercrombies' decision not to hire her.

The case, known as Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) v. Abercrombie, centers on Elauf, a practicing Muslim who applied for a position as a model at the Abercrombie Kids store in Tulsa, Okla., in 2008. She was denied employment because she was wearing a black scarf known as a hijab during her interview.

Abercrombie has a “look policy” that prohibits employees from wearing black clothing and “caps” and rates its prospective employees based on their dress. EEOC argued that Abercrombie violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act by failing to accommodate Elauf’s religious beliefs.

There is a difference between what a business's rules are and what the law is.

If a business posts on their store front, no weapons and you are found with one, then they can ban you from their store, etc.

I do not believe they have the power to have someone arrested for breaking their rules.

An Uber cab driver can tell you to "get out", etc. and send any info. about you to HQ, so that you cannot reserve another Uber ride.

Apparently, Uber cab drivers have been held up at gun point, just like other cab drivers have, that kind of crime, makes life difficult for all of the good law abiding citizens out there, unfortunately.

So if you conceal very well and want to take a chance .. that's up to you.
I think Uber business may suffer because of their stance, but that is just my humble opinion and I could be wrong.

Meh, I fail to see the problem here. I'm sure plenty of uber drivers along with some UPS/FedEx drivers conceal carry all the time. Uber's rules don't supersede a single law on the books. If Uber wants to restrict their already dwindling driver pool, they can go right ahead. It's not going to stop people who conceal carry anyways. You'd be surprised at how many people you walk past everyday that are carrying, especially in Northern VA.

With that being said, there are a lot of idiots in here that need to brush up on conceal carry laws and permits (as opposed to simple gun ownership), along with learning the difference between a wage and 1099 employee.

Of course not, but if Uber catches its drivers carrying a firearm, legally or otherwise, the drivers will be terminated.

Apparently, Uber doesn't see that as a problem.

Yeah, I'm sure Uber's wand & frisk patrol team will get right on that. Don't forget passengers are banned from carrying too.

Apologies, Mr. Literal. Instead of "catches", I should I have written "finds out". lol.

And the same goes for them. Uber can ban passengers who violate its policies.

Stupid move by Uber.

Then good luck to uber in "finding" them.

There is little Uber can do if a driver or passenger choses to violate company policy surreptitiously. Once Uber discovers the violation, however, it can act to punish the violator.

Isn't this how all rules & regulations operate? Unless you're caught, you won't be penalized for speeding or pouring used motor oil down a storm drain or cheating on your taxes or bringing a gin & tonic disguised as a seltzer to the community pool on Saturday afternoon.
