No, it isn't because the driver still makes a profit with Uber Pool and they didn't intend to travel where they're going.
In Germany for example ride sharing under the legal definition requires that the driver doesn't make any profit and really just takes people along. If that's the case, you don't require additional/different insurance etc.
- elcct 10y agoIf passengers cover your costs then you always make profit indirectly - by gaining experience carrying people and being more experienced driver in general.

A driving license will be more than sufficient for any driving job and if it isn't, you're applying for a job like truck, stunt or test driver that requires additional training anyway.
- elcct 10y agoFor a minimum wage probably you're right. But if potential employer had to choose between someone with experience and someone without, who is he going to choose even if said qualifications are just a "driving license"?
