With a deregulated taxi market, why would anyone want to work for a rideshare firm. Better off getting a limo licence and hacking with mytaxi.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

No ride share yet

Talking to my mate on the council .She says Uber rideshare or any other rideshare for Dublin is unlikely .Our biggest danger comes from busses .She recons that the British company that got the Dublin bus routes will look to go 24 hour and increase their routes as new housing developments come on line .She said the environment committee of DCC are not in favour of promoting any car use in the city so would oppose rideshare .

So now they are thinking sensibly on the council. Private cars can go less places than us taxis can. Could you imagine private motorists trying to get to certain places at certain times.

Do I get an "I told yiz rideshare isn't coming"??

Not coming to Dublin Vic dont know about rural Ireland .The other thing the good lady councillor mentioned was emissions .Ireland are due for fines of 400 million a year from the EU for not reducing emissions .Government are setting new emissions targets for transport so dont be surprised to see motor tax on diesels increase probably wont effect us but hybrid or electric must be the way to go in future .Something she told me is busses must get permission to run in built up areas after midnight toavoid noise polution ,so unlikely if they do go 24 hour that there will be to many routes allowed .

Sure why would the rurals go for rideshare, they only pay €5 for their taxis. It's rampant up in Donegal town
