          Its what I heard..of course many good drivers but many bad ones that get through security checks
          they have requirements on the years of the cars and appearance of them dumdum

                    No such thing as background checks for Vegas cabs either. They're all from Somalia, how are you going to check it?

                                    Cab rates will come down because of Uber and then they will smash them

                                      Uber is a threat to current metropolitian cab companies…….expect more Uber criminal 'accidents' or thereof.

I work in the golf industry here on the east coast and one of my assistant pros drives for them during the winter months. Here in Philly they have Uber Black Car (a limo type service) or UberX (where you can use your own newer model nice car). He has a Mercedes C300 so drives for them. Uber takes 20% of the fare, you get the rest. He works probably 15-20 hours a week and makes appx. 300-400 a week. You are responsible for taxes at the end of the year. I'm assuming deductions for car wear and tear can lessen your tax burden
                                          So he averages around $23/hr before gas + wear & tear? Sounds like a horrible deal.
