Er. You don't know the answer do your two questions when you get in a cab either...Lyft and Uber both do real-time verification (selfies, take a photo of your drivers license). [1] Drivers also have pictures attached to their profile which help passengers at a quick glance understand this as well. I would compare this to how taxi drivers have their taxi license on display. Not perfect, but doesn't seem like the Uber/Lyft issue is anyway less safe than taxis. [1] https://eng.uber.com/real-time-id-check/ https://eng.uber.com/real-time-id-check/
