There are some drivers who are all working in the transportation tech of Uber, have being involved in most of the crimes. To avoid these kinds of issues, the self-driving car was established in our world.

Uber. To many, it is the preferred mode of transportation for a sporting event or concert when traffic is mayhem. To others, it’s a convenient and fast way to step up in da club and get your jiggy on. I have used Uber a couple of time in the states and for the most part, the rides were smooth, comfortable, and direct. As I was embarking on my study abroad journey in Puebla, Mexico, my group was advised to use Uber as it is securer than taxis in Mexico. The first week using Uber was lit. Short time waits and swift pick-ups, no confusion with locations, drivers with good music taste and complimentary water and candy.

In major cities across the globe today, many rely on the services of both taxicabs and Uber. Both allow users to reach their destination in a timely manner, but one service reigns supreme. The regulations and training requirements make tax far superior to Uber. Uber lacks the same levels of training and regulations one must possess in order to be a driver as compared to taxicabs. Some of the rules one must follow in order to be a driver of a taxicab are as follows: one must have a knowledgeable understanding of the streets they are navigating, one must dress nicely and professionally, and one must follow the provided rules in the guidebook.

In modern society’s day and age, we still have many types of transportations that helps us complete some of our daily needs. You can drive, grab a bus, take a train or even get a quick workout and walk. However, as society progressed and wages increased, people start spending money on other ways to get around instead of driving themselves such as Uber: an app that allows other people to drive you places for a small fee depending on its location. Uber may be cheaper than having your own car but it isn’t always very reliable or convenient. Having your own car provides a reliable source of transportation. Although insurance and maintenance can be pricey; Uber is a relatively cheap and easy system of transportation, although it can be unreliable.

Furthermore, adding in electric cars and self-driving vehicles this will make the drive probably faster. Uber will see a decrease in the number of lawsuits that come in every year (Lim). This smart idea will come with

However, they would have safety concerns with the service provided by Uber. Presenting the experience bias and confirmation bias, there is numerous news of how Uber drivers are

Uber has offered job opportunities for the community; however, the drivers’ professional qualities remain in question. Unlike the taxi drivers and other professional drivers, Uber’s drivers have not been trained. According to a Wall Street Journal news report, 62% of Uber’s drivers have other sources of income – more than one job. Uber is not economically feasible as a full-time job (Macmillan, 2015). In addition, the expenses of gas, maintenance, and insurance are Uber’s drivers’ responsibilities. They do not enjoy the same employment benefits and workplace protections as taxi drivers and other professional drivers (Tucker, 2015).

Still they’ve yet to do anything to lower the increasing number of harassment and assault cases. Now, I know that accidents happen but Uber’s response to these problems are utterly ridiculous.

Uber is not a traditional type of taxi system, it’s a application build in between driver and the passengers. it has it own ethics, it is very helpful for modern life style . and the use of uber is increasing day by day, its more faster cheaper more safety better than taxi.

Another concern is if autonomous vehicles were to be placed, jobs such as taxi drivers, bus drivers, or truck drivers would not be available. According to the United States Department of Labor, there are 233,700 current taxi drivers, 665,000 current bus drivers, and 1,330,000 current truck drivers in the United States (Overly). People in these occupations will most likely be forced to find new jobs or possibly be unemployed. Uber has also stated that they are interested in self-driving cars and will implement them in the future which further causes problems that are working in the driving occupation ("Self-driving vehicles?”).

Are they facing “hardship”? The answer is taxi license owners can be compensated. When New South Wales legalised the operation of Uber, the government offered compensation to taxi owners. In 2015, the New South Wales Premier, Mike Baird, stated that the government has sold and regulated taxi license plates and so has a responsibility to offer some protection for investors who own these plates. The perpetual owners of taxi plates will receive a $20,000 payment and multiple plate owners will receive a maximum $40,000. The total industry fund is budgeted at $250 million which will be used to play licensees who are facing disruption. Therefore, we don't forget those taxi drivers who poured their savings into taxi licenses over the past decades and the government will ensure that they can get the equitable assistance.
