Is there a launch date yet, when cars will be on the road?

Curious to see when this gets signed by the Gov and if they can get this up and running before the WSOP starts up.

they already "lauched" once, so there's no downtime for Uber. once the law takes effect they'll be open.

It'll take about 10 minutes to get their drivers back on the road.

What I'm wondering is, does anyone have an idea when those ten minutes start?

Is Uber going to be an option for WSOP? Debating whether or not to get a rental car.

After Governor signs it they will still have to apply to the regulatory body. July 1st is what I've seen as a projected date to start up again.

LA Times reported that July 1 date as well. Believe that date is written into the legislation.

And the governor is expected to sign it.

Cabbies in Paris will bitch and moan and become violent. Cabbies in Vegas will just bitch and moan.

Vegas really needs to get this done. Uber would completely change the game.

looks like a launch on Monday

hopefully they'll have both pick-up & drop-off capabilities at the airport

edit: apparently they won't be able to pick up from the airport until October, lolNevada. really wanted to test this out on Tuesday when I fly back.

Where do you see a Monday launch date? I just googled and didn't find anything that made it look like its coming within the next few weeks.

The way I read the articles, Uber/Lyft need to get business licenses from Clark County first, which will take some time.

Drivers will apparently need a business license?

Wonder if uber and lyft will subsidize the application fee.

In Seattle drivers have to pay for a business license. Out of pocket LDO. Wasn't terrible though, $55 if you expect to earn under $20k from it in a given year.

I was at the state office building today to cover the NV State Athletic Commission Hearings for Fight Pass (Nick Diaz hearing) while this was also going on...
