Uber, Lyft Must Convert Drivers into Employees, Judge Rules

I'm confused how they are violating Assembly Bill 5 (workers can generally only be considered contractors if they perform duties outside the usual course of a company’s business)?

Do any employees working at Uber or Lyft currently do any driving?

Their business is providing riders with drivers. The driving is not their business.
