Rideshare companies Uber and Lyft agreed on Nov. 1 to a “landmark settlement” amounting to $328 million following allegations that the firms were allegedly “cheating drivers out of hundreds of millions of dollars” in earnings, announced the office of New York Attorney General Letitia James.
Uber will pay $290 million and Lyft will pay $38 million as part of the settlement, which the attorney general’s office said represents the “largest wage theft settlement” the office has ever won.
