New York legislation would let delivery cyclists pee in peace
New legislation introduced in New York’s City Council last week would require restaurants to allow delivery cyclists to relieve themselves on the premises, Gothamist reports. It’s part of a suite of bills aimed at making life a little easier for delivery workers, including one that would require the apps to find a way to pay with a non-banking payment option (like cash), and another that would allow drivers to set maximum distances or minimum trip payments. According to a survey of 500 delivery drivers, 67 percent reported having been denied the use of a bathroom on the job. Here’s hoping the legislation has broad app-pee-l (sorry).
