- cozzyd 8y agoThe number of Uber/Lyft rides a day pales in comparison to the number of public transit rides.
- woolvalley 8y agoThe cost is also far less than transit. If we judged Uber by the same standards that we judged local transit costs, they would be ahead by quite a bit and fairly profitable. You could even increase the take home that drivers took and still come out ahead.

- toomanybeersies 8y agoI'll generally take a train over Uber if it's less than 10 minutes walk either side. But I'll take an Uber over a bus any day.
