Local Trend. Ordinances on Ads in Ride Share.

Chicago prohibits advertisements in ride share vehicles.

A company that offers entertainment services (video games & ad content; not prostitution) sued claiming that the ordinance violates equal protection clause of the US Constitution because it does not apply to taxis or other vehicles.

The case is progressing in federal courts after surviving motions to kick the case out of court.
