In my country, it's illegal for the taxi driver to decline the customer unless it has valid reasons(the customer is violent or threatening, does not satisfy the hygiene standard, road is damaged etc).
I think it's a fair regulation for it will casually lead to the discrimination.
Also, in my country, being a taxi driver requires special license and certified car so Uber/Lyft doesn't offer the service. They don't want to pay the cost of checking if the contractor satisfy the requirements of license and car.
- icebraining 6y agoHow is that regulation enforced?
- ezoe 6y agoBy the usual law system. Police find the suspects, send it to the prosecutor, the court, lawyer, judge and all.
- icebraining 6y agoYou're missing the part of getting evidence. Seems downright impossible to prove.

- rrdharan 6y agoI was going to say there's no way there's police budget for this kind of enforcement in the US but I would've been wrong: https://gothamist.com/news/undercover-taxi-fare-investigation-unit https://gothamist.com/news/undercover-taxi-fare-investigatio...
