NYC Taxi Cab Drivers Sue over Wheelchair Accessibility

Posted by YellowCabNYC on January 9, 2016

nyc wheelchair taxi

After a lawsuit filed by yellow taxi drivers, the plan to increase the wheelchair accessibility of New York City’s taxi fleet by 2020 is now on hold.

New rules requiring wheelchair accessible taxicabs within the fleet came about after the city settled a suit that charged it was in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act because so few taxis were accessible.  Only approximately 250 of New York City’s 13,000 were able to pick up passengers in wheelchairs.

The suit filed by the taxicab drivers alleges that the requirement that half of all yellow taxi owners to start buying wheelchair-accessible cars in January is in direct conflict with a previous law that requires the city to utilize fuel-efficient hybrid taxis.

The city’s Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) has yet to approve a vehicle that is both hybrid and is also wheelchair accessible at the same time.  No vehicle like this appears to be available.

Taxicab drivers state that there are only ten vehicle models that the TLC has approved for them to use.  However, none of those approved vehicles are both hybrid and wheelchair accessible.

A spokesman for the city’s law department said the city is “strongly committed to accessibility and will be opposing this application.

In comparison, Uber is not covered by the city’s requirements for wheelchair accessibility because they classify themselves as an “app” company and not a provider of transportation.  It should also be noted that as of 2016, Uber passengers can locate a wheelchair accessible vehicle by simply choosing UberWAV within the app when scheduling a ride.

Jim Weisman is the president of the United Spinal Association and states that he is not without sympathy for the taxi drivers.  “They’re not protected from Uber and they’re desperate guys,” he said.  He does, however, want the city to live up to its promise to provide wheelchair accessible rides for those that need it.

    Most places, y call big company fr handi-accessible limo,
    they send one.Big$$$

    We know the monied executives doing business pay high bucks for limousine
    transportation.And if a monied executive needs handi-accessible vehicle I am
    sure they have one to fit the bill, or otherwise accommodate.

    Why not Uber and Lyft “fleet” service. Maybe NYC should set it up: all yellows
    be dispatched by Uber, no handi-accessible taxis? If y turn it on their ear, and
    let yellows skate, y no chameleon Joshifier from Josh & Joshifier LLC going to
    change their “official” tune.

    Uber isn’t considered a transportation service? Well then what is the description of the service they provide??? And aren’t yellow cab drivers like myself independent contractors also? So many questions, but we all know the true answers.

    Royal is right. No coming back. The TLC mandates keep on coming. Panic button, wca, black box probably more surcharges and who knows what else. Banks will most likely never lend to buyers again or give loans. More medallions on the shelf every week. Drivers won’t lease a medallion and buy a car especially a wca. Of course the study found uber has no impact on traffic. Now another useless health care surcharge is coming. It’s over but for you who think there will be a comeback ask yourself when was the last time you went to Hoboken? A year or so for me.

    City’s Delayed Traffic Study to Guide Regulation of Uber Vehicles

    Report: Uber Hasn’t Worsened NYC Traffic

    $2 million traffic study ‘does not point the finger at Uber’

    New York’s traffic troubles aren’t Uber’s fault.
    The study was due by the end of November. But over six weeks after the deadline, the findings have yet to be made public.

    The city has been silent about the delay except to say that the administration will eventually propose recommendations for the for-hire vehicle industry.

    Instead, Mayor de Blasio’s long-awaited $2 million congestion study puts the blame on deliveries, construction and New Yorkers themselves.

    “Population and job growth, increased construction activity, growth in the number of deliveries, and record levels of tourism have all contributed to the reductions in vehicle speeds,” the report on Uber and the growing for-hire vehicle industry found.

    “Vehicles of all types play a role in congestion,” read the study, which was conducted by consulting firm McKinsey & Co. between August and October.

    They just keep lowering the bar. Dont have to speak english, or know the city, next don’t need hack license. TLC sold souls to uber and now must serve up unlimited drivers. New slave boat of immigrants docking on mahattan island soon.

    Stupidity speaks out itself .who would kill a business that brings tons of cash clean for the city at zero expenses.don’t you realy think that clean air or human rights policies play an important role in money making .Clean air and congestion policy were made to make more money ,is like selling medications that kills and that you think cure people .The reason uber is staying is because they took medallions and share it with others in the control room .but once you saw garages how they slaved drivers by pushing them to work 7days a week and overcharged them even in holidays and they never respected the tlc chart prices ,then I would say to them go kill yourselves.garages made money for the last 50 years and where that money now to compete with uber .I thing that money in turkey ,france,itally,greek
    israel .egypt.bangladish.
    africca,lebanon…..
    Those owners can not compete with uber now they misdesplaced the money and it’s over.

    I watched the TLC meeting on livestream and joshi was quick to plug uber about a baby being born in an uber. But when one of the speakers mentioned uber would surge during the snow joshi quickly shut him up and ordered him to stay on topic. When you read between the lines you see joshi for what she really is. In ubers pocket. She gave herself away. Only the City Council can save the yellow industry. Any more surcharges or mandates and the fleets can watch more cabs sit. Better for me if there are less cabs out but not for my tin.

    JUST GO HOME SONG BY CABBY 0F00

    Just go home time’s up
    running over pathholes .
    driving like a ghost going every place ,
    noone can see you or feel you .
    just go home
    your life is all mileage
    at one mile is happiness and the rest is struggle ,
    your car seat speaks loudly ,go home.
    and the meter on with red digits saying ,
    it’s your blood don’t waste it .
    just go home
    the street light poles speak ‘is that you again’.
    just go home
    when your life is controlled by other hands
    just go home
    who care for nothing
    but making others rich using your blood ,
    cabby just go home.
    TLC will cry soon

    tired of the greed-mongers, the constant tv blasting: come, bring yo money, it’s time, it’s Black Friday, then black black, Saturday, then black black black sunday then cyber Monday. BRING YO MONEY. It was too much, just like Uber. Click yo iphone and an Uber doctor will appear. Too too much.

Jose Bataller. Cab driver for 30 years in NYC.: Today is the anniversary number 7, yes, I said number seven, that yellow cab drivers, yes, us, yellow cab drivers, had the latest metered fare increased. 7 years without any increase in our pockets. Under mayor Bloombr We had 3 increasesin 2004, 2006 and the last ne 2012. Under 'LIBERAL DEMOCRAT PROGRESSIVe" De Blasio nothing, nada, nada......the mother f-cker forgot us. Thanks to Him and the governor for Uber, working harder and harder to survive and getting worse. Tickets here, tickets there and tickets everywhere. He put the police against us.
