[Nfbc-info] new Uber policy may more discrimination

[Lisa Irving]

Earlier this week I heard on the news that Uber is test piloting a new
policy in four major U. S. Cities outside of California. Essentially, you've
got two minutes to find the Uber car or  the driver can cancel the ride;
leave and you get charged. This evening I received an email from Uber. Uber
is instituting this same practice with Uber Pool in San Diego. 

 

I am wondering if this new practice intended to encourage punctuality will
work against blind and visually impaired passengers and individuals who
cannot move quickly.
