About this listen

LegalRideshare's co-founder & lead attorney Bryant Greening talks with Jared Hoffa about gig worker related news, issues and events that happened during the week.

LegalRideshare was launched nearly a decade ago after Uber and Lyft drivers messaged attorney Bryant Greening with questions about accidents and didn't know where to turn. To understand this new industry, Bryant signed up to become an Uber driver to step into his clients' shoes.

Fast forward to today, LegalRideshare is entirely focused on gig worker accident and injury cases. We've served thousands of clients around the country and secured millions for drivers and gig workers.

  • Male Discrimination, Waymo on Highways and "Send A Ride".

    Male Discrimination, Waymo on Highways and "Send A Ride".
    Nov 14 2025
    Male drivers sue, Waymo hits the highways and Uber sends rides. LegalRideshare breaks it down. MALE DRIVERS SUE UBER/LYFT FOR DISCRIMINATION Male drivers are suing Uber & Lyft over discrimination. Time reported: Male drivers for Uber and Lyft are suing the companies over a feature that lets users hail only women drivers. The dual class action suits allege that the functions — which followed thousands of sexual harassment and assault lawsuits against Uber and Lyft over the years — have limited the economic opportunities for men and discriminated against them because of their gender. Lawyers acting for the plaintiffs argue that male drivers “are discriminated against and receive fewer and different rides than they otherwise would absent the policy.” They contend that the policy “reinforces the gender stereotype that men are more dangerous than women.” California has some of the nation's strongest anti-discrimination laws. The lawsuit accuses both Uber and Lyft of violating the Unruh Act, a California civil rights law that “expressly prohibits sex discrimination by business enterprises.” They are seeking $4,000 in damages per male driver in California for violating state law. WAYMO ON HIGHWAYS Waymo hits the highways. Bloomberg reported: Waymo will become the first robotaxi provider in the US to offer driverless rides on highways, a milestone that positions it to better compete with ride-hailing companies and traditional taxi services. Beginning Wednesday, the Alphabet Inc. unit will begin offering some riders routes that include freeways in San Francisco, Phoenix and Los Angeles, it said in a statement. Freeway service will be available 24 hours a day. Users who have opted in to Waymo's new services and features will be the first to be able to try this kind of trip. Waymo's US rivals are also testing highway driving and in some cases charging customers, but until now the presence of a human in the car was a given. Tesla Inc. recently launched its self-driving cab services in Austin, where it offers some highway rides, with a safety monitor in the driver seat for those kinds of routes. (It also has human monitors present for non-highway rides, but they sit in the passenger seat in those cases.) Separately, the Elon Musk-led company is testing a purpose-built self-driving “Cybercab,” which Musk said will go into production in April. UBER MAKES IT EASIER TO SEND A RIDE Uber is adding new features. The Verge reported: The new “Send a Ride” feature allows you to pay for someone else's Uber ride directly from the app. You set the number of rides and spending limit, then send a link to whoever you want to gift the rides to. Additionally, John F. Kennedy International Airport, LaGuardia Airport, and Orlando International Airport are now available for Uber Share, which discounts your Uber fare when you share your ride with someone heading in the same direction. The update arrives as airports are still experiencing disruptions that could carry on for a while, even now that the government shutdown has ended. Another new feature, Uber Ski, makes it easier to reserve an UberXL or UberXXL directly to nearly 40 top ski locations around North America and Europe, and allows you to purchase “Epic” ski and snowboard passes at the same time. Lastly, Uber Eats is getting a Cameo-like feature for the holiday season that will let you add a celebrity video message to gifted Uber Eats orders, including the likes of Megan Thee Stallion, the Jonas Brothers, Jake Shane, and Tracee Ellis Ross.
