San Diego typically the owner of the vehicle pays the fees when its towed from private property not the owner of the property. It seems the lawsuit is based around considering the fees are higher than legally allowed.

Why would they spend 12 hours day 7 days a week doing what the rider should have done in the first place? If the companies gave incentives for riders to put the scooters in those places these two wouldn't have a business model.


That's not how it works for cars why would it be different for scooters? You generally can't call police to impound a car parked on your private property. That's why you call a towing company.


I am more interested to see which side makes those statements.


Most times its not definitive if the insurance will cover a procedure until after. I know for myself there is a fairly "cosmetic" produce I want, but no matter which surgeon or insurance I have I can't get an answer from either that isn't basically, "do the procedure and after it will be determined if its covered". While the procedure isn't life threatening it definitely would be quality of life improving. Unfortunately, its generally considered cosmetic, at least until later in life where the side effects of not having the procedure can become life threatening.


How would eliminating employer insurance provide pricing transparency? Insurance companies don't typically disclose the prices they negotiate. They might disclose the prices a consumer pays but don't confuse this with the cost of healthcare. For an example say two options for a medical service have different cost. One charges $5000 and the other charges $8000. Say the insurance covers all but $500 no matter which choice is made. A consumer typically would only see the cost to them which is $500 and not the $3000 difference between the cost of the same service depending on provider.


This, I dropped out of college after doing the majority of the "core". I do well and can easily afford to finish without loans, but finishing requires a bunch of general education credits that I see no benefit from.


In my experience tech companies tend to be the ones that are snobby about degrees. I know Fortune 50s (non tech companies) that don't care about degrees.


The same thing happens with IT security. A common question that comes from high school or college students is how to get started in the field. When the question is answered by people in IT security its pretty common to see college isn't required and be given paths to getting into IT security that don't require a degree. When its answered by people outside the field, go to college and get a degree is the answer.

The reality is a degree isn't required its only one path of many someone can take. And often those with degrees eventually follow the same path those without went. The difference is they are four years behind in career progression and thousands in debt.


Zoning laws or local regulations (not just HOA) most likely would prevent it. An example is in Seattle some of the most expensive neighborhoods have strict rules that prevent multi-tenancy housing and the people living there actively fight to preserve that.


Does that stop share houses? If so how?
