NC Democrats preview rideshare protections, renew firearm safety push

North Carolina House Democrats previewed legislation for rideshare driver safety following the 2025 killing of a Durham Uber driver and renewed calls for gun safety measures, including red flag laws. The proposed rideshare protections would require companies to report incidents and explore tools like in-vehicle cameras, while gun safety advocates highlighted stalled efforts under the Republican-led legislature. The family of the killed driver sued Uber, demanding corporate accountability for insufficient safety measures.
