When are they going to face RICO charges?

I cannot understand how a company can encourage drivers around the world to break the law for monetary gain, and still manage to avoid the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.

Oh, wait... yes I can. $$$$$.

Newark threatens to tow Uber drivers at airport

The city of Newark is threatening to tow Uber drivers at Newark Liberty International Airport and Penn Station, saying they’re violating city taxi ordinances.

The Record reported Newark chief prosecutor Evans C. Anyanwu ordered police to step up enforcement starting Feb. 22 and “tow Uber drivers” he said are operating in violation of unspecified city laws.

“After Feb. 22, the continued violation of the city’s laws will result in civil and criminal penalties for Uber and its drivers,” wrote Anyanqu in a letter sent late last month to Salle Yoo, Uber’s general counsel in San Francisco, the newspaper reported.

Uber spokesman Craig Ewer told the newspaper that the company will “stand by our driver-partners by fully compensating those subject to unjust fines or citations as a result of the city’s actions” and urged the city stop trying to “restrict competition and consumer choice.”
