Few journalist know that UBER & Lyft are operating under more restrictive regulations in NYC. These regulation include fingerprinting, drug test, medical test and a couple of classes. The cost to comply is at least $600 per driver to start. There are other cost like special license plates.
Essentially you have to be a professional to drive an Uber/Lyft in NYC, legally. They comply in NYC so I'm not sure what Uber & Lyft are complaining about. At least one of them should have stayed, especially Lyft this a missed opputunity for Lyft.

- studentrob 10y agoWow I didn't know that. This whole news cycle seems pointless now. It's been proven other cities operate with Uber this way, and other companies can fill the void.
