The U.S. Department of Justice has filed another lawsuit against Uber, alleging persistent discrimination against passengers with service animals and wheelchairs. Federal prosecutors claim drivers routinely deny rides, levy insults, or cancel trips upon recognizing disabilities—violations that persist despite Uber's zero-tolerance policy and 2025 service animal notification features.
This marks the latest chapter in a decade-long legal saga. Disability advocates argue policy improvements ring hollow without stricter driver enforcement. The DOJ seeks financial penalties and court-ordered operational changes, framing the case as a systemic failure rather than isolated incidents.
