Both Uber and Lyft actively discourage this activity though. Knowing how Uber's data mining team works, they have probably already built models to identify drivers who do this and send fares to them less frequently.
- krisdol 11y agoI feel like this could be another court case if they decide to continue calling their workers contractors.
- codecamper 11y agoDefinitely. I think these networks should be forced to allow drivers to drive for anyone. Open it up and allow capitalism to drive down fees.
- exelius 11y agoYeah, too bad the taxi business is rife with semi-legal business tactics (or outright illegal ones like slashing a competitor's tires). Local cab companies have gotten away with it for years because the scale is small enough at the local level that no single company stands out, but Uber is perpetrating these schemes on a national level. I expect them to get smacked down at some point.
