My guess is he was in violation of company policy and not state law. So he gets fired from Uber. Phuck em. Let’s see how they deal with the backlashFrom the article...
"Uber prohibits riders and their guests, as well as driver and delivery partners, from carrying firearms of any kind while using the app, to the extent permitted by applicable law.”
I've never used any ride share crap, but is there any way for them to enforce this?
Sounds basically like a request.
Or is it comparable to 30.06/07?

Doesn't count as Air Force if you never get promoted above Airman-Basic.
Bingo. He didn't do anything unlawful just did it against company policy. All they can do is fire him and ban him from using their service.My guess is he was in violation of company policy and not state law. So he gets fired from Uber. Phuck em. Let’s see how they deal with the backlash
I see what you did there. Good job staying with the theme of the threadNever used Uber or any ride share. Would always conceal carry in one though. The driver would be smart to carry too, the worst thing they could do is fire him. Never know who will come up to you with an AK.
If they do so, they stand a high chance of someone suing saying that Uber drivers are employees and not independent contractors. Uber has already been fighting this off in various cities/states/countries.Bingo. He didn't do anything unlawful just did it against company policy.

These supposedly are personal vehicles. They are not owned by Uber nor leased from Uber.
Uber does NOT want any chance of having to take on drivers as employees as opposed to independent contractors. They will tread softly, in all likelihood.
Explains the excellent shot placement.
What's strange about that? Saturday night is surge pricing.He’s active duty at Ft. Hood, and he is driving an Uber in Austin? WTH?
lol no... They can only ban you from their platform. The only way they would know is if you have to defend yourself such as this situation. Having Uber upset with you is of little concern.I've never used any ride share crap, but is there any way for them to enforce this?
No, the key is the above "to the extent permitted by applicable law. Applicable law here will be Austin city code and Texas state law. 30.06/07 is state law. If the guy owns the car, or rents / leases it from a 3rd party, then Uber has no leg to stand on here unless there is a law which says, "If you are a private contractor, you must obey your employer's rules regarding firearms even if you are not working on company property"
There is; however, law on the books which says that if you lease or rent your vehicle from your employer, then the employer has the final say on whether or not you may carry a gun in that vehicle, so if this person was leasing / renting the vehicle from Uber, then this would apply.
Criminal mischief in the night time.You cant run them over for vandalising your car or blocking you in.
Texas's felony murder rule, codified in Texas Penal Code § 19.02(b)(3),[1] states that a person commits murder if he "commits or attempts to commit a felony, other than manslaughter, and in the course of and in furtherance of the commission or attempt, or in immediate flight from the commission or attempt, he commits or attempts to commit an act clearly dangerous to human life that causes the death of an individual.
