Taxis and Carpool Service

    Both taxis and carpool services have their pros and cons. Carpooling is an easy way for people to make money using their own car and a great way to travel when a driver and a rider have the same destination. However, for a customer it would be easier to grab a taxi passing by than finding the right person to carpool. I think taking a taxi is a better option to get to my destination over short distances. That is why I think taxi drivers would not be out of work due to the carpool service. There needs to be thorough planning for the coexistence of the taxis and carpool services.
