It's funny I had completely forgotten about having to wait for a taxi to arrive.

How is uber not given massive credit for reducing the dangerous waiting-around-in-some-random-place-you-don't-know time from 30mins+ to 3mins+

That must have saved a few thousand muggings on its own by now.

Don't forget the reduction in DUI's as a result of reducing the cost/friction of getting a 'cab' home.

If you don't understand the motive of particular political decision then it is very likely a matter of money under the table.
