@SFCityFC @SFElections On the trash bin so it lasts longer 😂
NEW: In response to exploitation by Uber & Lyft, drivers in NYC are forming a worker-owned rideshare cooperative called @TheDriversCoop. The new app offers cheaper rides and returns all profits to the drivers. It could defeat Uber & Lyft with New Yorkers’ support.
Absolutely EXCELLENT article by @emma_jmeier covering the challenges and promise of ride-hailing cooperatives @TheSELC @ArcadeCityHall @Eva_coop thereboot.com/cooperative-ri…
@TheRideshareGuy @wcoleman @michelekyrouz Could not agree more that TNCs are an important piece of encouraging reductions in personal vehicle ownership. But the key question here that has yet to be answered is whether these reductions outweigh the added emissions caused by TNC driving + unfettered deadheading
@TheRideshareGuy @wcoleman I'm guessing you mean TNCs make up 13% of all trips in SF. Trips are different than traffic congestion (measured by vehicle-hours of delay). The same @sfcta study found that TNCs make up 25% of citywide and 36% of downtown congestion on an absolute basis bit.ly/35fp6nC
New report by @IRLEUCB's Michael Reich: Most Uber/Lyft drivers are paid < minimum wage. With employee status overall compensation would increase 30%; schedule flexibility would be unaffected; rider demand would fall by 1-2%; company profits would increase. irle.berkeley.edu/pay-passengers…
@alfred_twu Haha wow, this is amazing. Thank you @alfred_twu

Prop 22 is more than a labor issue: it could also have lasting traffic and environmental consequences. Thanks to @StreetsblogCal for posting! cal.streetsblog.org/2020/10/05/op-…
@kvnweb Thank you! I agree. Transportation regulation only goes so far when billion-dollar companies have a direct financial incentive to flood city streets with idle drivers. The labor/wage side of things is much more impactful in this case.
Prop 22 would be bad for drivers, bad for traffic, bad for the environment. Also, fairness: the time drivers spend waiting for ride requests is extremely valuable to the companies, but they don't pay for it - and won't, under Prop 22 cal.streetsblog.org/2020/10/05/op-… via @streetsblogcal

Which driver-owned cooperatives and/or true ridesharing alternatives will be stepping up to take their place? Huge opportunity here for a worker-friendly ride-hailing app to make a name for itself
JUST IN: Uber and Lyft say they may shut down California rides at 12:01 a.m. on Friday. If so, they plan to keep cars off the road until at least November, when voters weigh in on Proposition 22. trib.al/zVskmyJ
@veenadubal It will be interesting to see what alternatives might emerge. @ArcadeCityHall is one example from Austin that's been active for 4+ years. Study by myself and @TheSELC found drivers (and riders) are more satisfied with an alternative peer-to-peer approach bit.ly/366AYH9
Wondering what might happen if @Uber and @lyft follow the law and stop operating in #California because they have to treat drivers like employees? Look no further than Austin Texas where new ridesharing alternatives thrived after they left in 2016. shareable.net/new-ridesharin…
@Shareable @Uber @lyft Exactly right! One of the alternatives, @ArcadeCityHall is still operating to this day, 4+ years later. Myself and @TheSELC studied Arcade City and found drivers (and riders) are generally much more satisfied with an alternative peer-to-peer approach bit.ly/366AYH9
The pandemic has called into question the labor practices of ride-hailing giants, particularly as drivers are considered essential workers despite being provided basic protections, @adstocker with @TSRCITSBerkeley. smartcitiesdive.com/news/can-healt…
