Anecdotal, but I got an uber in London recently (quite near the center) and the driver was complaining the whole trip about the fact that he needed to take a piss, and that there was a severe lack of public toilets.
- mrtksn 2y agoI see how this can be a problem. It's probably not O.K. to offload the Taxi industry toilet costs to 3rd party businesses.
- nytesky 2y agoSo before Uber did taxis return to dispatch center for such things? With their own version of Danny DeVito?
- mrtksn 2y agoI have no idea, probably it varies by location. If no paid public toilets are available and dispatch centres with toilets are not a thing they can always strike a deal with local businesses I guess. Also, they need to eat and the places they eat are probably also the places they use the WC.
- bell-cot 2y agoA decent and competent version of Uber would be meeting such needs. As things are - other companies can make national headlines by caring about human needs of drivers: https://www.today.com/food/news/chick-fil-a-break-room-rcna71031 https://www.today.com/food/news/chick-fil-a-break-room-rcna7...
