The New York City Council is set to vote Wednesday on a package of bills to impose new regulations on Uber and other ride-hailing services, including a first-of-its-kind freeze on the number of cars the companies can have on the city’s streets that has been met with stiff opposition from the industry.

If the new regulations pass as expected, the industry may have a few options at its disposal to fight back, said Robert Rock, a managing partner at Tully Rinckey who specializes in business law. Those options include lobbying state lawmakers in Albany to pre-empt local laws, or using the courts and challenging rules that the Taxi & Limousine Commission may promulgate as part of the new legislation. Uber and others may argue that the cap may deprive them of a property right, Rock said, though the city could counter that it has the fundamental duty to protect the health, safety and welfare of residents, and that combating traffic congestion “can implicate those things.”
