Actually, I just looked into it.
Both Uber and Lyft have policies against picking up minors who are not in the presence of an adult, so I stand corrected.
This being said, on both of my accounts, and I used these services frequently, there's nowhere when signing up for me to enter my date of birth.
So, yes, the driver was in violation of company policy.

New feature:
By Doug H, Updated March 7, 2024 4 Comments
Uber now has a feature that allows minors to take an Uber ride without being accompanied by an adult.
With Uber Teen, teens aged 13–17 can request a ride from their own Uber account and ride alone—but only after a parent or guardian adds them to a family profile.
Parents and guardians get real-time ride updates and teens have access to several safety features, like PIN verification and in-ride audio recording.
Prior to Uber Teen, unaccompanied minors were not allowed to use Uber under any circumstances.
