I heard that UBER driver service soon will be in Sioux Falls, I say GREAT!
UBER has had criticism because it can’t be regulated like regular cab companies. Once again I say GREAT!
Regulations equal higher rates, especially in the taxi industry.
UBER drivers are regulated though by UBER, they do vehicle inspections and background checks on their drivers. The way they get around taxi regulations is that you don’t pay or tip the driver, you pay UBER through a phone app.
I used UBER about 4 times this past weekend in Minneapolis. Not only was there a fast response time, the vehicles were clean (and so were the drivers) and in most cases the cab ride was about 25% of the cost of a regular cab.
I say bring on UBER to Sioux Falls!
