A&D's Al Rubin: Competition
Welcome, But Safety Required
ONEONTA – Al Rubin, president of A&D Transportation Services and an adopter of Uber-like Red Route, wants to make sure that, if Uber, Lyft or other ride-sharing companies do come into Oneonta, that local riders will be safe.
“You want to know who’s operating in your city,” he told Common Council during the public hearing on the city’s Taxi and Livery code earlier this evening. “You want to regulate against surge pricing, make sure these companies are going to help police if they need it.”
