We need a new word for "taxi companies with cute apps, unsustainable pricing/wages and lots of Silicon Valley venture capital propping them up" to distinguish them from old-school taxi companies if we're gonna quit saying "rideshare".
Any suggestions?
- lr 7y ago"hired car" // been in use for decades "ride for hire" "car for hire" "fee for service"
- jhbadger 7y agoThe dot-cab bubble?
- Marazan 7y agoMacro-cab firms.
- toast0 7y agoI prefer unlicensed taxis.
