The Justice Department on Wednesday filed a lawsuit against Uber for unfairly charging “wait time” fees to disabled passengers, who typically need more time to enter a car than other passengers.

Uber currently charges wait time fees that start two minutes after the Uber car arrives at the pickup location and end only when the car begins its trip.
