For Drivers:
Uber prohibits riders and their guests, as well as driver and delivery partners, from carrying firearms of any kind while using the app, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Please note that the only situation where we would allow a firearm while using the app is if you are transporting your firearm in accordance with the Transportation Security Administration rules for transporting firearms and ammunition. That means your firearm must be unloaded and locked in a hard-sided container in the trunk of the vehicle. All parts, including magazines, clips, ammunition, and bolts and firing pins must also be transported in the trunk of the vehicle.

Comments
Gun control is so important thing in the topic of the taxi. I've worked in this field for a long time and faced a few scary situations where I needed to use the weapon, but because of these rules, I cannot even keep it with me to the car. But I was a student, so this topic was discussed a lot in the lectures so I had some knowledge from this site https://eduzaurus.com/free-essay-samples/gun-control-argumentative-essay-thesis/ and it helped me a lot to avoid conflicts or legal ends. But I still disagree with these rules. Drivers want to protect themselves, that's all.
