In NYC, Uber drivers are required to be licensed by the Taxi and Limousine Commission, and you can report their dangerous driving to the commission, who will fine them.

It seems like a much better system.

It's almost like people have been through this problem before and devised regulations to fix it.

Don't get me wrong, I always use Uber or Lyft over a cab. Taxi regulations are often cited as awful. But this particular one is a good one.
