Introduced Text

Missouri HB1648 shields transportation network companies from vicarious liability if they are not negligent and have met their obligations.

Missouri HB1648 amends Chapter 387 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri by adding a new section, 387.435. This provision exempts transportation network companies from vicarious liability if two conditions are met: the company is not negligent under sections 387.400 to 387.440, and the company has fulfilled all its obligations with respect to the driver. This change aims to protect transportation network companies from liability related to driver actions under specific circumstances.
