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.

It may well be that Uber, on a corporate level, is jointly liable by making compliance more difficult, and failing to make such reasonable accommodations as would be necessary to ensure that their drivers are in compliance. This is probably not 'training'

However, crediting drivers for, idk, cleanup costs for service animals when necessary, would very plausibly be something within their legal obligations.

Well I mean look I'm not saying the status quo is adequate but it is the status quo that when you call an Uber they tell you the driver can charge a cleaning fee or damage fee on your card if you mess up the car It's already a thing, plenty of abled passengers mess up cars

And CS said in their pre-ride discussions with drivers they say they'll absolutely pay the fee if the car actually does get messed up
