Uber v Taxi

Uber v Taxi

We were joined today by Allen Conway, who is an Uber driver and a Manchester former taxi driver.  He contacted us in order to correct the misinformation spread about Uber in Manchester.

He came on the show to explain the rules governing Uber drivers and their cars.  He also had something to say about the condition of Manchester cabs and the customer service problems that probably have something to do with their loss of customers to Uber drivers.  He also weighed in on the city’s regulations of the cabs the inspections and the responsibilities of the drivers.

These are interesting observations from someone whose been on both sides of the of the driver’s door.
