Action Alert – AB1286! This bill is about to be voted on by the State Senate and if passed, could mean the end of shared mobility in the state of California. The biggest issue is that it eliminates the ability of shared mobility providers, including any non-profit providers, to be protected against the negligence of users. This means if someone does something foolish and negligent and has a crash, it opens up the provider and the municipality to lawsuits even if they did not contribute to the crash in any way. No other industry is subject to this standard and with how broadly the bill is written, there will be lots of unintended consequences. Please take a few moments to contact your State Senator (click here to find your Senator’s contact info) and ask them to vote NO on AB1286.
