Show Notes
New York City sues Empower for operating illegally without licenses or insurance, demanding a court order to shut down its services. The rideshare app, launched in 2022, connects passengers with licensed drivers, offering cheaper rides than competitors. However, Empower has not registered with the Taxi and Limousine Commission or applied for a high-volume license, bypassing safety and regulatory rules. The city aims to protect drivers and riders by enforcing the law and restoring order to the streets.
