Yet another reason to use taxis:

- CamperBob2 8y agoI wonder why people were so eager to stop using taxis when Uber and Lyft came along? Hmm. Gee. Someone should really look into that.
- mikeash 8y agoThat post reminds me of late-night TV commercials for bizarre gadgets, which try to sell you on their nonsense by showing videos of ordinary people completely failing to accomplish easy household tasks.
- 0xfeba 8y agohttps://www.reddit.com/r/wheredidthesodago/ https://www.reddit.com/r/wheredidthesodago/ Yeah every taxi experience I've had has been terrible. Taking a longer route to increase the fair, rude, drives like a maniac. Then hassles me for a tip.

- Sohcahtoa82 8y agoIt's easy to laugh at them, but generally those products are actually being sold to people with disabilities.
- mikeash 8y agoInteresting. You'd think they would show people with disabilities in the ads... unless they were going for the mental sort.
- Sohcahtoa82 8y agoMy guess is that if they showed people with disabilities using them, able-bodied people would be less likely to buy them. They might admit some product might actually be kind of handy, but seeing it used by the disabled in an ad would implicitly send the message that it's for disabled people and not buy it.
