Bill > S05079

This bill requires Transportation Network Companies (TNCs), which are ride-sharing services like Uber or Lyft, to display a specific legal notice to passengers before they can use the company's digital network. The notice must state "IF YOU CLICK HERE, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO SUE US IN COURT" in conspicuous red, bold lettering. Passengers will be required to acknowledge this notice both during initial registration and every subsequent time they attempt to access the digital network. By requiring passengers to explicitly acknowledge this statement, the bill aims to limit the legal rights of ride-sharing passengers by making them waive their ability to pursue court-based legal action against the TNC. The bill would amend the New York vehicle and traffic law by adding this new requirement and would take effect immediately upon passage.
