Wasn't anyone told about getting into a strangers car?
6:22
Postponed til December
8:30 We were told to not to talk to strangers and never get in their car. Now everything thinks it's a good idea!
Every one of these concerns raised apply to regular taxis as well, public transportation, or just general storefront actually.
Ride share like uber and lyft are, I think, very safe. Riders AND drivers have ratings given out by their respective riders and drivers. Getting an uber or lyft is SO much easier than a taxi... you get real time data on where they are, where you are, how much it will cots... everything about it is better than a cab.
9:00 This is not getting in the car with a stranger, it's a business transaction, just like going into any sort of storefront. There have been robberies and shooting in storefronts.. but we don't stop using them do we? There is danger and risk everywhere... even if it is extremely low and most places, people or rides are very safe.
I think this is more about people being intimidated by change, and by technology.
