Totally agree, but I feel like the problem was the booking system, not the taxi.
I was traveling recently, and Uber had partnered with a local taxi company to handle ride requests. It was awesome. You get the convenience and speed of calling an Uber, but the vehicles and drivers are all regulated and paid by the taxi company. No questionable gig economy work, no wondering if the driver is getting paid fairly, no concerns over shady drivers, no ill-kept vehicles.
