Passage: Nobody takes taxis anymore because of Lyft and Uber . Even though lyft and uber are unregulated and probably bad for the economy , drivers , and passengers , they are just so darn convenient . If you take a cab you have to call the cab company and let them know where you want to be picked up . They 're supposed to have credit card machines in the cab but often they do n't . This means you need to have cash with you . For the fare as well as a tip . The cab driver says okay and takes the longest route possible so he gets more money . We make inane small talk as he drives until it gets too awkward and then we sit in silence . When we arrive at the destination I overpay him for the ride . Question: Who operated the car? Option1: taxi driver Option2: The person
taxi driver
