Tuscaloosa Police Perform Uber Sting

Arrested several people for not being registered taxi drivers, and found one guy driving around with a suspending license, drinking vodka and with weed in the car. This does not bode well for Uber's screening of its drivers.
Brandon Devonte Oliver, the driver accused of drinking and marijuana possession, was charged with first-degree possession and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was ticketed for driving with a suspended license, open beverage, no tag light and not meeting the city's licensing and insurance requirements.
His passenger, Wykey Guyton, was charged with first-degree possession of marijuana.

Meh.
He should've been booted out of the the driver system really quickly if he really was that bad. He was either a really new driver or customers still appreciated his driving and gave him good ratings.

Thank goodness Tuscaloosa PD is going after the real criminals so we can all go back to those squeaky-clean cab drivers.

How does Little Nicky not know that one of his players is moonlighting as an Uber driver.

Wow I wonder how much the Tuscaloosa cab companies paid the TPD to carry out that operation?

Out of curiosity, do they perform similar stings on taxi drivers?
I would imagine if something similar was done with taxi drivers, you would end up having a few that were breaking laws or regulations.

If sting was run on New Orleans cab drivers, I bet there would be numerous findings of broken credit card machines.

It's almost like the police don't want a reduction in drunk drivers on the road.
Now why would that be?

And people laugh when I say we have too many cops.
If your municipality is paying a group of individuals close to a $100K compensation package to bust wannabe cabbies, they are doing it wrong.
