You all act like this is about people demanding drivers have specialized equipment like wheelchair lifts when nobody anywhere has made that demand Everyone knows if you actually need a special vehicle you need to request one People aren't stupid

You called the ADA an unjust law, to me that's fucking fighting words The bare minimum of the ADA's definition of "reasonable accommodations" is to not actively bar someone with a wheelchair or a service animal from a public accommodation That's all drivers are being asked

If your job is driving people around who hire you through a public website or app then you are providing a public accommodation That is the law, and I am very passionate about it

ADA Title III specifies *reasonable* accommodations, sure If you can tell me exactly why picking up disabled people is costly or requires extra effort and training, we can talk about whether it's reasonable

But when you started a business open to the public you fucking surrendered the right to say "I just don't like certain kinds of people" The Civil Rights Act took away that right in 1964, and the ADA extended it to disabled people in 1990

The distinction generally being that if you're planning a dinner party or giving rides to your friends, then yes, you can do whatever you want.

Well yes, this is why Uber's business model is pernicious They still use the term "ridesharing" like it's a fun little app for carpooling or picking up hitchhikers for gas money when we all know that's never at any point been what it is in practice
