My dude, do you not know what fucking ride-sharing is?
A has a car and shares it with B.
A might not be in acquaintance with B.
There HAS to be A and B for it to have "ride-sharing capabilities".
Or else it's a self-driving van.
Lyft/ubers are illegal taxis. There's a driver and a passanger. Going from point a or b. No stops, no randos.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ridesharing_company
But sure thing, bud, you're absolutely correct!
Are trolling? You have to be trolling.
"A ridesharing company, ride-hailing service, (the vehicles are called app-taxis or e-taxis) is a company that, via websites and mobile apps, matches passengers with drivers of vehicles for hire that, unlike taxis, cannot legally be hailed from the street. "
Let me fucking chew it up for you, little peanut:
^ This is a taxi.
Okay, are you still with me? Let's hope.
Now the robo-van does not have a driver. But has "Ride-sharing capabilities" according to the original person I'm replying.
You either are sharing YOUR ride with randos, like a fucking bus, or other randos are sharing their ride with other randos, like a fucking bus.
It's not a fucking 'private pod', it has 14 seats. Otherwise it wouldn't be ride-fucking-sharing!
IF you're sitting alone in it it's just a big fucking stupid taxi.
It's a shit bus, that looks like a retro-futuristic toaster to milk money from idiot techbros.
