The Justice Department filed a lawsuit against Uber Technologies Inc. for discriminating against passengers with disabilities, including those who use service animals and mobility devices such as stowable wheelchairs. Uber is the largest provider of ride-hailing services in the United States. The lawsuit seeks $125 million for individuals who have been subject to discrimination
I’m assuming you are describing the driver’s pov from the context of the USA.
Do the drivers really use their own cars? Where I’m from drivers usually rent the cars or have a profit sharing agreement with a fleet management company.
Yes,I use my own car for Uber.
Lemme know if you have any other questions!
Are you required to get any special licence? Does your car require some distinctive sign to show that it’s registered in a rideshare platform?
No. Just special insurance.
My state requires both a sign with the Uber name and my license plate in the window. These are removable and provided by Uber.
Sorry for the interrogation, are you allowed to drive through the bus lanes?
Thank you for helping me deal with my curiosity lol
No drivers do I believe. But also I don’t have bus lanes in my area.
Unfortunate, I asked because I see Ubers/bolts using them all the time since they are considered public transportation here
Thank you for all the information
Uber drivers don’t have the right to use bus lanes, at least in my state.

That does happen, usually that’s more how traditional cabs operate, and even then in many places they own the cab and contract to a company for fares.
The vast majority of rideshare drivers in the US use their own vehicle.
Yeah, that was the big change uber brought. Traditional cabs were leased, and a lot of people do lease they’re cars for uber (though by the year instead of the day) but that’s nothing to do with uber and there’s no fleet.
