And Now This In NYC: New Service Offers Female Livery Drivers For Women


tlcStarting next week, women will be able to request a female driver through a new livery service.

It’s called SheTaxis-SheRides. It starts Sept. 16.

The New York Times says the drivers will wear hot pink pashmina scarves.

The service will take requests for rides through an app.

Potential riders will be asked if there is a woman in their party. If not, they’ll be automatically redirected to other car services.

The app will be available only through Apple but will eventually be made available for Android.

Stella Mateo is behind the livery service. Her husband is Fernando Mateo, the founder of the New York State Federation of Taxi Drivers. The group represents 30,000 taxi and livery drivers.

She says she plans to expand the service to other cities.

    Is it legal for you to ask for a male doctor doing your yearly check up.
    These woman feel threatened by men especially late at night, where they are more likely to be “physically” harassed…….

  2. The secular fanatics will object. They consider sexual harassment to be a right, not something to be protected against.

    The New York City courts will probably object, but will be reversed on appeal.
