In reply to the discussion: Florida: father surprised to find himself arrested after holding daughter's Uber driver at gunpoint [View all]

(15,376 posts)54. She was 13? How did she get an Uber?
She or one of her friends used a parent or sibling's account?
Some banks and organizations do have credit cards available for 13 -17 year olds through a parents account, but I think there's an age limit for Uber and Lyft accounts in the US. Has to do with the ability to sign contracts more than anything.

If he was that emotional he shouldn't have a gun. Guns come with responsibility, something people forget
