Best thing Uber did was bring to light how corrupt these taxi companies are.

I don't care about the license and all but seriously if you're going to be driving people around please don't carry a piss bottle under your seat like the driver I just got. That thing rolled out onto his floor and everyone could see it let alone smell it. Be decent thx

Good.
