It's because uber doesn't classify them as employees. Maybe we should look at the driver's status and blame the company over the individual drivers.

This has been hashed out and it is part of the contract they have to comply with the ADA also even if wasn't in Uber contract several courts have ruled they still have to comply with federal law!

They're independent contractors they have the discretion to accept or deny rides.

Not if the customer is in a protected class and doing so would be discrimination

No, you're not understanding. This driver is in the wrong because we know the rationale of why he didn't take the ride. But every uber request that comes on the rider app gives drivers the option to accept it nor deny it... regardless of why requests it.

Yeah, which is why people who say disabled users should have a flag on their profile warning the driver they're disabled are so wrongheaded

I agree with that. But there are plenty of uber drivers out there who don't mind picking up any and everyone. So I say, uber should have those drivers designate that they are fully accessible. Either that, or uber provides better utility and responsiveness for drivers.

No, they should not, because all drivers are legally required to be "fully accessible"

And yet Uber rents cars that makes that impossible.
