Remzi, a cab driver for 22 years, called in to Metro Morning to weigh in. He said the city has made a terrible decision, one that will prevent cabbies from making a living. "I think this is the worst deal of my life," he said. "There is no limits on the number of Uber taxis on the road. I don't know how I'm gonna survive." Remzi also felt the new rules remove essential safety measures.

Rhonda called in to say it's about time the city moved to let Uber operate legally. "I'm absolutely thrilled that council went ahead with this move," she said. She puts faith in the Uber system, in which passengers can rate their drivers. "People don't feel unsafe," she said. Rhonda said she has sympathy for taxi drivers who stand to lose their livelihood but said new technology is shaking the foundation of many businesses and people have to adjust. "People need to be able to adapt," she said. "I'm sure that the cab drivers will all adapt."

Corey is a former Uber driver who did well until the advent of UberX, the app that allows almost any car to connect with passengers willing to pay a fare. "You show me on paper how you can make money with UberX around. I don't understand it. It's good for the public but for the driver? You are not making money with Uber." He said factoring expenses, drivers would be lucky to make $3 on a $10 fare. He said you can't make a living as a full-time UberX driver.
