We would like to interview a disability expert/advocate about the issue below.
A woman in NY recently filed a lawsuit against the large ride sharing app Uber over accessibility, while disability advocates in Philadelphia have become more active on the state level to try to set accessibility demands as the company moves closer to being legal in the state. Uber claims that they are providing more options than the taxi companies in the state. Are these apps public services that should fall under the rules of the ADA? Are advocacy leaders expecting too much from the companies in comparison to the failings of other transportation options? What is the ideal scenario for accessibility for people with disabilities?
