Quote from: "TheVancouverGuy"$100-$200? You kidding me Joe? You're very cheap. Try the Samsung A5

Anyways I'll look it up.



I prefer a phone with a headphone jack.



Those new wireless phones w/o a jack don't always work with every device. Bluetooth doesn't always pick them up. Sometimes you need that phone cord to make the car stereo work.



While the A5 seems to have many of the features I like, one drawback is its size.



It seems like a rather large phone compared with the size I'm after:

Isn't there a phone slightly smaller than that, VancouverGuy?



Im after something small like an iphone 5/SE.



Those larger phones usually don't fit in the shirt or coat pockets

I didn't know until I was in Vancouver two weeks ago that they don't have Uber or Lyft.

Thats gonna change next year Fashionista.



The province announced ridesharing will be introduced in September 2019.



I sure wouldn't buy a limo or a taxi plate from anyone with them comin in.



They're sure to undercut everyone already in the business driving rates down dramatically.



Btw do they have uber in Calgary and Edmonton?

I believe Uber is in Calgary..



If I am not driving, I take buses or the C-Train, never taxis or ride sharing.

I would never take an uber or lyft ride.



Maybe some of the drivers are good and experienced but chances are most of them aren't.



And then one has to consider how sturdy and safe the vehicle is.



And whether the vehicle has been inspected properly and the owner is uptodate in his/her maintenance and repairs.



I'd be concerned about all these inexperienced new drivers flooding the transportation market.



A new study has shown higher traffic fatality rates after ridesharing was introduced in many US cities.



">




Uber & Luft vehemently deny the findings in the report.



But I think stands to reason because if there are too many inexperienced uber/lyft drivers going too fast, dont know the routes & stressed out because theyre driving to meet the demands of a computer app, more accidents will happen.



Its very stressful to drive according to an app because it penalizes the driver for every minute late or route the app does not approve of.
