Get out of the echo chamber for a bit, SF did not "solve transportation". Some startups (of questionable legality) have allowed upper class people to more easily move themselves around. Frequently in luxury cars. It's neat if you're one of those people, but it didn't solve much of anything.
- arkonaut 13y ago$200k in revenue a month for one of the consumer services alone (estimated Lyft rev on 120,000 rides/month) suggests they're solving a big problem/providing a lot of value for consumers...
- physcab 13y agoYou don't have to be so snarky. Of course I'm aware of issues outside of SF or even within SF for that matter. My point is that getting around in cabs has been made a lot easier. Sure, there are still problems with public transit and whatnot (I ride the bus everyday) but the increased attention on lowering costs via ride sharing is having a net positive effect.
