Why would anyone use an unlicensed stranger to pick them up and drop them off places?

| I am amazed at how prolific Uber has become. Not only for the reason you mentioned but for others. One of my friends dries for Uber and the majority of his passengers are highly intoxicated individuals. I realize there are some who rely on the service because they don't have reliable transportation. But mixing perfect strangers with high volumes of alcohol is a dangerous combination IMHO. |

I think Eddie said he was qualified, had tested or met their criteria. He probably knows more details, of what is required.
I heard my son today say a back ground check and a car less than 5 yrs old is required.

Could it be ;

So the uber website is your source of crime statistics regarding taxicabs?
