This document lists several common occupations including taxi driver, police officer, firefighter, doctor, actor, actress, bus driver, pilot, lawyer, and manager.
This document proposes an autonomous taxi service that customers can summon using a mobile app. It conducted customer interviews to gather feedback on a click prototype. Interviewees saw potential due to environmental benefits and parking issues but noted the idea is not novel. They emphasized reliability, availability, price competitiveness, safety and wait times as important values. Next steps include incorporating this feedback to refine the business model and prototype interactions with autonomous vehicles and social features.
This document summarizes Taxiwise, a taxi booking app. It grew from 5 drivers and no revenue in 2014 to over 5,000 drivers and $6.75 million in revenue by 2016. The app allows passengers to book taxis through an app and drivers to manage bookings through a driver app or web interface. It offers features like booking for venues, language translation, and address auto-fill that competitors like Uber, HK Taxi, and EasyTaxi also provide.
The document discusses themes from the film Taxi Driver, including:
- Loneliness and isolation of the main character Travis which is conveyed through shots that emphasize his separation from others.
- Travis' view of New York as a battlefield after returning from the war in Vietnam, seeking challenges as he treats the city like a war zone.
- Controversial portrayals of issues like racism, violence, and morality that were groundbreaking for the 1970s era but may be offensive or promote harmful views.
The document also provides analysis of lighting, sound, and camera techniques used in the film and their effectiveness in conveying Travis' mindset, as well as likes and dislikes of certain aspects of the movie
This document discusses regulations for ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft. It notes that while drivers and riders enjoy the services in over 160 cities, taxi industries complain they are unfair and regulators in some areas have cracked down by impounding cars and fining drivers. However, ride-sharing services argue they conduct background checks, ensure adequate insurance coverage, and provide transparency. The document advocates for new regulations tailored to these new services rather than old taxi rules, ensuring parity and consistency across states.
The document describes a proposed taxi sharing service called "taxi driver" that would allow customers to book all transportation for a trip from A to B through a single mobile app. The service would combine options like professional drivers, car sharing, rental cars, trains, planes, buses, and bikes. It would automatically adapt to delays using customer mobile data. The prototype was tested through interviews that provided feedback on improvements needed like a more flexible app and focusing on core customer values of reliability, availability, price, safety, and short wait times. Next steps include refining the prototype and finding a competitive advantage versus existing transportation services.
The document compares Lyft and Uber across several dimensions including drivers, customers, pricing, apps, and community building. It finds that while the differences between the two platforms are not significant, Lyft has fallen behind Uber in key areas like market share, brand awareness, and valuation. The document proposes solutions for Lyft to differentiate itself by establishing a unique brand focused on social activities and young people, targeting this niche market, innovating loyalty programs and ride recommendations, and building a stronger community platform.

Lyft in a New Era of Technology-Enabled Mobility: Implications for Policy and...Emily Castor
This document discusses Lyft and how it is affecting mobility. It notes that Lyft started as a way to increase carpooling by making it more convenient and reliable through their ride-hailing platform. Lyft has now expanded to 65 cities in the US and given over 10 million rides. The document also examines how Lyft is helping with last-mile transportation, reducing traffic and emissions, and providing transportation options in underserved areas through their shared Lyft Line service. Finally, it addresses some of the policy issues around regulating transportation network companies and peer-to-peer driving services.
This document summarizes research into whether Lyft is more successful than Uber among college students in Los Angeles. The research included media analysis, focus groups, polls, and analyzing social media sentiment. Most of the primary research showed that students prefer Uber overall due to past experience with the brand and perception of it being more reliable, whereas Lyft is seen as too casual with forced interaction with drivers. Thus, the conclusion is that Lyft is actually less successful than Uber in this demographic due to its approachable branding.
