IMHO, the best thing cab drivers can do it make cabs better to use: 1. Be easier to find - have dispatch that works. This is where uber kills cabs. 2. Take credit cards. 3. Be nice (again, uber stomps all overs cabs in this area.) To me, protests come off as the entrenched poor service providers complaining about the upstarts. Would you be sympathetic if comcast or the DMV held a rally?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
