The United States Department of Justice sued LYFT INC-A on Monday afternoon, seeking $53 million over alleged discrimination against disabled passengers. The federal lawsuit targets routine service denials for riders using service animals and stowable wheelchairs. The enforcement action mirrors a similar $125 million federal lawsuit filed against rival UBER TECHNOLOGIES INC last year.
