The transport company shared Uber has agreed to pay up to $ 25 million to settle a lawsuit brought by the district attorneys of the California cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles.
The two cities Uber sued on the grounds that he had misled consumers about checking the history of their drivers.
In addition, San Francisco and Los Angeles Uber sued for not having the right to stop and pick up passengers at airports permissions.
"Today the California Superior Court approved the terms of a settlement between Uber and district attorneys of San Francisco and Los Angeles," Uber said in a statement.
The joint transportation agreed to pay $ 10 million, five on each of the cities, as part of the settlement.
In addition, he agreed to disburse up to $ 15 million in additional fines if it does not comply with the regulations in force, including regulations of airports and advertising materials that could lead to misleading consumers.
Uber insisted, however, that already meets all standards required by prosecutors in demand.
"We are happy to leave this case back and excited to redouble our efforts to serve our customers and drivers throughout California," Uber said in that statement. EFE
