Ride Share rules

West Virginians may soon be able to use ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft in the state, but if people are looking to drive or ride in a vehicle associated with those companies, they will have to leave their handguns at home. Members of the West Virginia House and Senate both passed a bill this session that would allow companies that use ride-sharing phone applications to open up shop in the state. Both Uber and Lyft, have rules that mean neither the contracted drivers nor people using their smart phone to pay for a ride will be able to carry weapons while using the service
