it's a problem but they're willing to do it to get the local business. That doesn't make it a good regulation.

yes. It stems from an actual crime; new laws are reasonable. Uber left before it went into effect to “make a point”.
-
the way I see it: they tried to bully the citizens of Austin into eating their cost of doing business.
-
how does allowing a different background check system cause Austin residents to pay their costs?
-
pay with public safety. The new regulations were simply a more thorough background check w/ fingerprint.
-
I don't see any evidence that the background check is more thorough, just slower.
-
slow isn’t the concern - there’s a grace period for new drivers.
-
I don't see any evidence that the mandated background check is more thorough. Interested to find out tho.
-
my understanding is that it checked more sources and used more pieces of identifying information (fingerprint)
