This is exactly what’s happening in cities across the world including suburban Mumbai, where I live. Ride shares like Uber and Ola, a myriad delivery services, and privately owned rickshaws are choking the city. We’ve basically handed the city roads over to last mile logistics and ride share companies to the extent that one can’t safely drive in the city because everyone else on the road has a delivery/pickup deadline to meet. It has gotten to point when I get calls from people I barely know asking me to teach them how to drive so that they can work for Ola/Uber/Last mile logistics. Eventually, we’re all going to become shut ins because the alternative is to risk life and limb trying to share the road with people who are trying to play chicken with each other just to get somewhere a minute earlier.
