"Those looking to earn extra income now have a flexible earning opportunity available to them at the tap of a button," he added.
Uber this week announced a series of reforms in the wake of allegations that its founder and CEO Travis Kalanick, tolerated a workplace culture that condoned sexual harassment, bullying and retaliation against those who reported problems.
Kalanick has taken a leave of absence after former U.S. Attorney Eric Holder released a list of recommendations to improve Uber's toxic workplace culture, according to the Associated Press.
In 2016, Uber suffered a setback in the state when Jason Dalton, a Kalamazoo Uber driver, was accused of shooting 6 people and seriously injuring two more people while on duty as an Uber driver. Dalton is scheduled to be tried on murder charges in September.
