State lawmakers suggested that regulations for ride sharing companies will be discussed this upcoming legislative session.

Florida’s Senate president said that the state should be focused on liability and insurance issues to protect Floridians using the ride sharing programs to get around the state.

“Everyone loves AirBNB everyone loves Uber until there’s a problem, until there’s an accident, then everyon is going to love their lawyer. We as a state at least ought to, at least have some blanket protections for the consumer, that here’s what you can expect if you’re in an accident and not stifle the technology, the technology is good,” said Sen. Andy Gardiner (R-Orlando).

Gardiner said that other types of regulations should be left up to individual cities.
