Uber has been very successful in the past couple years in the DC area. They have been growing exponentially over the past couple years. As a city in the US, we have some pretty unique regulations, which are why I believe we are a perfect fit for them.

I am very excited for the opportunity to work with this startup and I hope to provide them with the opportunity to build and scale their brand in the DC area. The first step will be to partner with the DMV to implement the new rules. Once this is done, Uber will be the only company in the state to be able to operate.

Taxi in Washington DC. Usually this will be a very nice little taxi, but you can also take the metro to the hotel or the very expensive A/C cab to the Embassy. Ask for the Uber/Lyft price, they will typically be a bit cheaper and you'll have to deliver yourself. You can still use Uber/Lyft if you want, but you have to pay extra for the convenience and being able to tip in the app.

Here are the main bus services available. My favorite is Car2go. A driver can drop you off at a specified stop and take you to your final destination. Also, many are programmed with the temperature and air quality. So, if it's too cold to get to a bus stop, you can use the car2go app to enter your location and get back to it via your car. That said, I used a Chrome version of the app to avoid tracking or for shopping.

Taxi prices in Washington have doubled in the past four years, despite repeated warnings of the taxi industry's increasing unwillingness to accept drivers from outside Washington. Carpooling service Uber launched in D.C. more than two years ago, launching a taxi app to compete with traditional cab companies. Uber has expanded its reach even further, though its rate of growth has slowed recently. Washington taxi drivers said they have had difficulty getting new customers because of high rates and the inability to meet recent regulations requiring minimum insurance. Drivers often have to pay $15-20 for a single trip.

What is the rule on permitting a passenger in the front seat if the passenger cannot bend its legs to fit in the rear seat? Or is there a special vehicle to request.
