Does anybody know of an open source uber-like platform that could be used by local communities?

- white-flame 10y agoMany people do want these systems to have vetted drivers, consumer protection against bad behavior, insurance & maintenance/condition requirements for the driver and vehicle, and other such things. Of course, the taxi system does provide these protections, although with much more overhead than owner-operator systems like Uber. So while I'm not aware of an open source system, even if one were implemented, people would still want some sort of vetting, driver registration, and regulatory power over ensuring decent safety, which does require some centralization.
