Description
Uber and taxi drivers have a new protocol that can save riders time waiting for a car and could save everyone some money once congestion pricing goes into effect. Plus, home health care workers protest outside the state Department of Labor's headquarters on Wednesday. Also, a new NYPD rule will allow Mosques to broadcast the Adhan every Friday afternoon and every evening during Ramadan. And finally, WNYC’s Arun Venugopal highlights a weekly event in New York City’s Tibetan community that’s not just about fun but is also part of a worldwide campaign of cultural resistance.
