Uber has been ordered to pay $40 million in compensation to the parents of a 23-year-old woman who died after being left on a California highway by an Uber driver. The company had argued that the driver was an independent contractor and not responsible for his actions, but a judge ruled that Uber shared liability due to the unsafe location where the passenger was left and the driver's knowledge of her intoxicated state.
