That’s great.
In some rural parts of the country that didn’t even have ANY cabs before, this is now an option for people.
As an aside, I live in a very anti-gun city of a “may issue” CCW state. We have millions of people in this city/county and only a few dozen CCW permits issued total. One time many many years ago I took long cab ride from the airport and got to talking politics with the cabbie. His taxi had a large decal the width of the rear window with the word “supervisor” (or similar word I forget exactly) in big block letters. I asked what that meant and turns out he was the drivers’ rep on the city taxi commission or something like that. Anyway we got to talking guns and (he shouldn’t have done this) he pulls a stainless steel S&W .357 Magnum out from under his seat. I ask how did he get a CCW, he said he doesn’t need one, that his taxi was his place of business and that he argued successfully that taxi drivers should be allowed to carry loaded just like any other business person can keep a loaded weapon in their place of business. He claimed this was the law that he lobbied for.
Makes me wonder if Uber drivers aren’t also afforded the same rights.
