Question

Will having full coverage insurance on my vehicle be sufficient?

Community Answer

If you drive for UBER or LYFT, it is OK to have full coverage insurance. If you own a taxi company or are driving for yourself as a taxi renter or lease, you must have business insurance.

Does it takes two years to drive a cab?

Community Answer

It depends on which country and state you live in. Also, car services, such as Uber and Lyft, don't usually have as strict guidelines as for driving a cab.

The practice of not allowing single passengers to sit directly behind the taxi driver is often rooted in safety concerns and security measures. This arrangement aims to ensure the safety of both the driver and the passenger by minimizing potential risks.
