  umm, yes.  Haven't the drivers asked you who you are?

  I am sure having a white name like, "Bill" or "Jennifer" helps.

   5 years ago in  GOP & Trump prefer Uber over Lyft? Anyone surprised?

  Not surprised at all. Lyft has always been about the cool chill hippie attitude. They always tried to appear as the liberal easy-going little brother of evil Uber. It's everything GOP stands against. hahaha.

   5 years ago in  Why don't cities limit the number of Uber drivers? I keep hearing about how there are too many and causing congestion.

  Agreed. Everybody is ignoring the reality and looking away from individuals who are suffering.

  I was just reading this thread.  Medallions are worthless now.

   5 years ago in  Has your Uber driver ever stopped to get gas while you are in the car? mid-ride?

  My driver has stopped to take a dump once. At a local Chinese restaurant.  He just pulled in and went. 

  Apologized profusely. Come on dude, it's okay. We've all been there.

   6 years ago in  What is the most economical way to transport 4 people from different locations to one location?

  I was going to disagree for the sake of disagreeing by saying trains and buses, but when there are four passengers, UberX is probably fractions cheaper.  so I lose yet again.

   6 years ago in  OLA (Indian Rideshare) is set to launch in the UK!

  I didn't expect this to be the next move...  I guess they were waiting for Uber to set the precendence. They just got approved there.

  London is a nice town to move into.  Small and tight area.  Heavy usage of taxis and rideshares.

   6 years ago in  What mechanisms are there to prevent vandalism and enforce accountability on Bird Scooter riders?

  The bicycles I realized have locking mechanisms but also ask the riders to afix them on to stationary things. like trees.

  Seems a bit weird.

   6 years ago in  OMG! Uber operator in fatal self-driving vehicle crash was likely streaming 'The Voice'

  Reminds me of all those stories where in the early days of cruise controls, people would start reading a magazine or leave the wheel completely (say on an RV), with the false belief that the cars do indeed themselves.  Of course they all ended up in a ditch, or worse wrapped on a telephone pole.

  This is like how Tesla drivers who use the auto drive mode are known to fall asleep.  and no, that isn't a good thing.

   6 years ago in  If you were the new CEO of Uber, with absolute power, what would be the first thing you'd change?

  Yes.  As a CEO, I will stop being what we are not.  Stop being a technology company.

  In fact, do you know what we are?  A big ass taxi company.
