There’s a reason the cost is so high for cabs in London. Great public transportation and high col. if you’re complaining about the cost of a cab ride , remember the cost would be the same if Uber marketing wasn’t subsidizing your rides.
- ukoki 6y agoLiveable wages might be one part of it, but blackcabs also charge more due to restricted supply caused by a 3-4 year qualification requirement that is almost completely obsolete in the age of GPS navigation.
- JAlexoid 6y agoGovernment enforced monopoly typically results in this kind of crap.
- JAlexoid 6y agoThe cost of an Uber ride is roughly the same as for a minicab. So.... I'm guessing that they don't subsidise much. Black cabs is a different story.
