If a business feels like regulations created by the government are not reasonable, it has all the right to decide to stop doing business. Government shouldn&#x27;t be regulating such things in the first place, but since it does, it surely can&#x27;t force businesses to continue working under them.<p><i>&gt; but it doesn&#x27;t seem entirely outrageous that the drivers of buses, taxis, and similar transportation services should have them.</i><p>It is outrageous. I mean, it&#x27;s a vehicle. Not a spaceship, for gods sake. This person has licence and good rating in the app? Good enough for me. If it&#x27;s not good enough for you, don&#x27;t use Uber.
