Berlin Bans Car Service Uber

[dennis roadman]

My last encounter with a taxi I was trying to go from college park to Laurel. Something like a 20min drive and dude tried to charge me 80 . He tried to lower it to 60 and I still hit him with the . Then he kicked me out the car. Had to have been because I was on a college campus because I've used a taxi to travel the same distance from Bowie to CP, and had to pay extra for trunk space and didn't pay more than 30. This is the same driver that didn't even know how to get to me and I had to walk to a 7-11 just so he'd know where I was. Also the same driver that only accepted cash [they all do this] and also the same driver that upon entering his vehicle had no idea how to get to my destination with no properly functioning GPS and he had a dash GPS and a smartphone . . The sheer incompetence for something somebody does to put food on their table was astounding. In any other service industry dude wouldn't even be able to work.

i was at union station a few weeks ago trying to get to trinidad and didn't feel like walking because it was 11 pm by the time i got off the metro. i asked a cabbie in the back of the line if i could hop in and he told me i had to get in line at the amtrak exit

i was so you dont want my money right now?

My pops drove a cab part time for a long while... he kept the car clean and told passengers "if you throw up in my whip, you're paying and cleaning"

I've seen taxi drivers doubling down... being Uber drivers and taxi drivers

once my dumb ass friend from the middle east who cant hold his liquor at all threw up in a cab and the cabbie threatened to call the cops on us, even though by the time he realized what happened we had already cleaned it up. i was gonna overpay dude and get out halfway there just to call it even, but he got aggressive and tried to film us like we actually did something wrong

grow up in countries where alcohol is banned and throw up in american cabs brehs

Do they use their taxi as the uber whip?

My pops told me he'd engage in conversation to make sure folks didn't throw up... but in the end, people would just be telling him all of their problems like he's their counselor and by the morning he'd be like humanity is lost

DMV taxi drivers are the absolute worst. I almost got into a scrap with one cause they didn't want to wait with the meter running for my homeboy to walk out of the Mcdonalds on UStreet. That's the excuse he gave, but in reality he was salty I was going to Arlington and not DC.

Tbh it's really going to depend on who's able to line these politicians pockets the best. The problem with uber is there's alot of liability that they're currently being able to "escape" for lack of a better term. What happens if an uber driver seriously injures or kills a passenger, what if that driver was under some influence? What about if a driver kidnaps a victim or robs someone? What happens when passengers start robbing drivers?

Exactly!! This right here is what's real. Is Uber more efficient?! Hell yeah it is! But it also has down-sides that people just haven't been motivated to explore yet due to how new the industry is. When shyt really goes down, Uber/lyft are gonna dodge that responsibility like a muhfuka simply because they've got the maneuvre space that comes with being something new & needed in the market.

I for one hope that Uber makes it into Germany and all over the world eventually because it's a really great and reliable service, but in order to expand they're gonna have to put in a little more work. shyt ain't supposed to be easy anyway .

I use uber more than I drive... I basically use it every day and I don't even really need to. Its madd convenient. I be in the black cars every other day. Taxis are gross and the drivers r rude... plus u can order an uber by just pressing a button on ur phone.

I even have chicks get picked up.. and delivered to me if im lazy and im suppose to pick them up.

Plus if ur not feeling the driver.. u can see his her picture before they get there and cancel and order someone else. You also get to rate each driver.
