I was an undercover Uber driver
You need to look at market size to make that statistic anywhere near interesting.

Uber is 2-3x the size of the whole taxi industry in SF. Remember, it's not like there is a national taxi regulatory system. It's a bunch of separate municipal systems and Uber is far bigger than any of the other players in all of them.

Yes, of course, that's what makes the 50x-100x number so inaccurate.
