Horse and carriage drivers offered jobs in Ford factory, Horseback Union said no!
Six horse carriage drivers committed suicide in the past year.

Most taxis are horrendous. They barely speak English or have some sort of hygiene issue or try and take me on some wacky route like I don't live here,
With uber starting to do stuff like upfront fares and uber pool, it's pretty much over with. I've seen a LOT of new yorker trends over the past two decades, and I can safely claim that Uber has reached an indispensable point for the average upper class new yorker.
The last linchpin imo for uber will be something like uber pool with better dedicated routes. Like a bus, but without all the people that ride the bus. That will be awesome.

They already launched a feature called Express Pool in some areas (at least the Bay Area) which does something like that: it's like Pool, but you might need to walk a little bit from/to your final destination. The routes aren't fixed, but the spirit of the idea is the same.
