Lyft drivers are creeped out by Uber. "Operation: Shave the Stache" [1] is one of the most manipulative business practices I've heard of. Lyft chooses to invest its money on improving the experience inside the car, and hiring socially intelligent people, who they then treat like human beings. Uber could learn a lot from them.
