Or business expenses. Black cabs still tend to get you to your destination faster than Uber. They're faster to hail (at least in busy areas), can often use bus lanes and have more knowledge of the city. Their pricing is insane but I've never had an Uber that could beat a black cab.
- iso1631 6y ago> can often use bus lanes Indeed, that should be banned right off, but as you astutely point out, rich people want to get around faster than the rest of us.
- C1sc0cat 6y agoWhy? Its not like bus lanes are exactly overflowing with traffic would you ban cyclists from bus lanes as well.
- iso1631 6y agoYou could let teslas in bus lanes and they wouldn't be overflowing with traffic, that's hardly the point. Bus lanes should be for vehicles that add very little to congestion, either because of the number of people transported (as in the case of a bus), or because of the size of the vehicle (bikes, motorbikes, e-scooters). Black cabs (and ubers) have an effective occupancy even lower than private cars.
