"I can't do things on a whim. I have to plan it days in advance." The lawsuit claims that Uber, in discriminating against riders with disabilities, has violated the city's human rights laws; the plaintiffs ask that the court require Uber to "develop and implement a remedial plan to ensure full and equal access to its services for riders who require accessible transportation." "Uber claims it's a revolutionary company, but it's engaged in old-fashioned discrimination against people with disabilities from its first day in New York City," said Joe Rappaport, executive director of the Brooklyn Center for Independence of the Disabled. "Our lawsuit against Uber's discrimination makes it clear: It's 2017, not the 1950s, when it comes to equal access to transportation." The lawsuit is the latest challenge for a troubled company, whose chief executive, Travis Kalanick, was forced out amid widespread criticism over the company's handling of sexual harassment, executive misbehavior and its internal culture.
