Uber妥協,在紧急情况下不会再漫天要价
每个人或多或少都会喜欢用一些打车的应用软件,但是他们是不是都会凭良心去定价而且定价是否是公平的,这就成为了问题。Uber只是承诺它会在发生危机和自然灾害期间会服从
法律
不再加收而外的费用,这些个狡猾的家伙!
来自纽约律政司的Eric Schneiderman的新闻:
#BREAKING : My office has reached an agreement with @Uber to cap pricing during emergencies, a thoughtful application of NY law to new #tech .
— Eric Schneiderman (@AGSchneiderman) July 8, 2014
(#最新消息:我的办公室已达成协议与 @Uber 上限定价在紧急情况下,纽约州的新法律也同样适用。#tech
——Eric Schneiderman)
如果你想知道“紧急情况”意味着什么,那么请看纽约法律Code – Section 396-R:价格欺诈:
For purposes of this section, the phrase “abnormal disruption of the market” shall mean any change in the market, whether actual or imminently threatened, resulting from stress of weather, convulsion of nature, failure or shortage of electric power or other source of energy, strike, civil disorder, war, military action, national or local emergency, or other cause of an abnormal disruption of the market which results in the declaration of a state of emergency by the governor.
(为本条的目的,“异常中断的市场”是指任何市场的变化,无论是实际的或迫近的威胁,由恶劣的天气造成,自然灾变,电力或其他能源短缺,故障或罢工,骚乱,战争,军事行动,国家或地 方紧急情况下,或由总督的市场,结果在一个紧急状态的声明的异常中断的原因。详见 法律 )
也就是说,当核弹落在了布鲁克林或者布鲁克林被暴风雪湮没了的时候,如果你要用Uber软件搭车回家,那么就不会再面临300美元不明的额外收费了。那么在这些事情发生之前, Uber 还是会漫天要价,把它那双看不见的手伸入自由市场的口袋里,同时批评着市场的供需要求。
