加州仲裁员裁定Uber需向Emily Normandin-Parker的父母赔偿4000万美元1。这位23岁女性在2023年8月乘坐Uber后被司机赶出车，随后在州际公路边缘遭车撞击身亡1。
加州退休法官Richard A Stone在仲裁中认定Uber应被视为共同运输者，对司机的过失需承担替代责任1。这一裁决驳回了Uber关于其作为技术平台不应对司机行为负责的主张1。Uber表示"仲裁员在认定Uber对那晚悲剧事件负法律责任时是错误的"1。根据Uber的说法，其曾提出的和解条款包含1000万美元保密协议罚款条款1。
An arbitrator in California has ruled that Uber must pay $40 million to the family of Emily Normandin-Parker, a 23-year-old woman who died after being ejected from an Uber vehicle on a freeway in August 2023.1 The retired judge presiding over the case, Richard A. Stone, determined that Uber bears vicarious liability for the driver's negligence, rejecting the company's argument that it should not be held responsible as a technology platform rather than a transportation operator.1
Uber has contested the arbitrator's decision, stating that Stone was "wrong in finding Uber legally responsible for the tragic events that night."1 The company had previously proposed a settlement that included a $10 million confidentiality penalty clause, according to the decision.1 The arbitration ruling establishes Uber as a common carrier with legal responsibility for the actions of its drivers in this case.1
