I'm fairly sure I agree. If Uber is liable when the driver is moving a passenger from a to b then I think they should also be liable whenever the driver has the app open and is available for rides. I'm just not 100% sure they should be ever be liable for a driver's negligent acts because those drivers are independent contractors, not employees. That to me is the more interesting question.
