Age discrimination against people for being too young is legal, it's only illegal to discriminate against people for being too old
And adding on to that, I believe it aligns with the minimum age for renting a car in the US. As in, if you try renting a car while under 25, you usually need to pay a premium for similar, insurance reasons.
I think a lot of companies will straight up not rent one to you if you aren't 25+.
Except UHaul. Uhaul has always had my back
No, it only works the way that most benefits people who actually bother to vote.
Why would they care about the costs? It's not like they're the ones paying for the insurance.
FTA
All 50 states require commercial insurance for drivers to earn money with a ride-hailing service. Uber maintains commercial auto insurance for drivers — including at least $1 million of liability coverage once a ride is accepted. Personal auto insurance typically doesn’t cover activity on ride-hailing apps.
Bullshit they do. When I delivered food for them I had to pay for my own insurance. They never once mentioned anything about providing "commercial insurance". I also had to lie to my insurance company about delivering to keep them from raising my rates to the point where I wouldn't make any profit.
