All that we are going to see is a corporate take over of the taxi industry worldwide we seem to look at it as just an Irish thing . We still have jobs helping to build the brand and the data bases for the app/motor companies until they refine driverless time frame probably 5 to ten years .Which is more notice than the girls in the civil service typing pool got e mail put them out of business the girl in the wages department was wiped out when they linked up the timeclock with an apple mac that done the wages Show bands were replaced with DJs I even read that some builder intends to deal with the shortage of houses by building a complex for young professionals where they will have their own rooms but have a shared communal living space when I were a lad that sort of complex was called a Jail I hoped that my taxi would provide a bit of extra income when I retired it would act like a pension now I know it wont unless I specialize by offering tours or WAT where you look after the passenger
John, after reading your posts I think you are right!
I am going to take your advice and set up a hooker app, anyone know any hookers that want to join a hooker owned hooker app?
Nah only messing....
But your last few posts on this thread are very interesting. shows you have thought a lot about it and investigated it deeply yourself.
I had outlined the threat of tech and car makers in my previous posts. Your posts show that you have looked into this in a much deeper way.
The posts will give me a lot to think about and more stuff to investigate/research myself.
If what you predict comes to pass, then all the more reason to have an app that is owned by drivers, at least they would have a voice and they can be the ones that the tech firms and car-makers use instead of the leeching commercial apps.
