    Why would you give a regular taxi driver an Uber PIN? You just walk up to a taxi and get in.

      Because Uber needs to insert themselves somehow to be able to squeeze as much money as possible out of both you and the taxi driver.

        That still makes no sense. Cabs have no affiliation (e.g. yellow cab) with Uber. I doubt any cab driver cares about Uber PINs. What am I missing?
