  Presumably, escrow would be the blockhainy solution to this. 2-of-3 key signatures required to release payment, so at the end of a ride, both parties need to agree all was in order, or file a dispute with the escrow provider. Blockhain shenanigans aside, it seems to me Uber could provide escrow here. It would at least remove this problem of after-the-fact surprise charges.

      What I meant was more that you need escrow to use blockchains for trade, not the other way around.
