I'm not a public policy expert by any means, nor do i claim to be one, however there's a pretty charted history of how laws can be changed. Examples include protests, lobbying, and ballot measures just to name a few. Don't fool yourself into thinking that Uber is on the moral high ground like some civil rights movement. The are a taxi company that is not following well-established procedure. If they want to continue to operate they should either adapt, or lobby for changing that procedure.
