19 Women Sue Lyft After Allegedly Being Sexually Assaulted By Drivers

The transcript discusses a lawsuit filed by 19 women and a husband against Lyft, alleging failure to protect riders from sexual assault by drivers. A similar lawsuit was filed earlier by 14 women. Over 500 criminal allegations, including sexual assault, harassment, and kidnapping, were reported against Lyft and Uber between 2014 and 2018. Lyft acknowledges the risks women face and emphasizes its commitment to safety, introducing new features like a 911 button. However, plaintiffs argue that background checks are inadequate and demand cameras in all Lyft cars.
