I bet if it were three cents per fill up cheaper, people would choose Uber-level drivers.

Given Uber's history, I would guess they would find out where everybody associated with the fire department, police department, county, and state regulators live and then block any deliveries to them or their neighbors.

Fire Marshalls have to catch you before they can use their teeth.
