hmmm kidknapped due to a false positive would be a bit of an oops to try and rewind. its bad enough that the cops do it [just try and get them to give you a ride back to where thay took you from, even when they are told to cut you loose]

it causes real damages when you basically abduct and strand someone.

these "kids" were shooting orbees out the windows, so mischief on them, but get it wrong once and it could get expensive.

It would be a tiny settlement, particularly now that we have documented cases like this one where the policy is preventing real harm.

Like, if you're a kid drinking and shooting bystanders from the back of an Uber, what do you think is going to happen?

I certainly don't think the Uber driver would hold me prisoner.

		And provide footage to Uber and the authorities. I don’t want to be in an Uber with a driver who wouldn’t.

You're not stranded... just call a Waymo.
