Yeah, I could be wrong. What I mean is whether the taxi industry adjusts in such a way as to make taxis cheaper and taking it out of driver pay.
There's also the question of regulation. A lot of the expenses come from regulation, but then in theory you get a safe, clean, reliable taxi ride - as opposed to some random person's car (complaints about sexual harassment from uber are here (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/03/28/uber-s-biggest-problem-isn-t-surge-pricing-what-if-it-s-sexual-harassment-by-drivers.html), but it's not like there aren't stories about harassment from cab drivers too).
