London's transportation regulator has granted Uber only a 2-month license to operate in the city, stating that it wants more information from the company as it considers a longer permit.
Why it matters: A court granted the ride-hailing company a 15-month probationary license in 2018 after Transport for London (TfL) declined to renew its permanent permit the year before.
