chauffeur

Due to your inebriated state the car has been placed in chauffeur mode and is driving you home.

Then the gravy 'airport' runs carry risk if your market's airport requires chauffeur license, commercial plate, & commercial insurance.

Perhaps parents could pool enough money together to actually keep a full-time chauffeur around somehow.

You have zero control over the bus, or if they're driven by a chauffeur.

Uber does not operate as taxi, but, as they can be not directly hailed from the street, they act as chauffeur for hire.

The vast majority (for whom the human chauffeur model is too expensive) will have no brand loyalty at all, and are there for the taking.

In other words, if all the automatic chauffeur's friends jumped off a bridge, it would likely be a pretty effective optimization for it to jump off too.

But instead our chauffeur drove like a maniac up those hills in that old Ambassador, and I didn't have any medical insurance at that time.

Anyone can provide a chauffeur for hire service, even without a taxi license – you just need a special insurance and a special drivers license that permits you to transport people.

I'm using Chauffeur Price here, never had to complain.

> We partner with local, established chauffeur services in each city where we operate.

You're welcome to stay at the hotel down the street if you can't handle sleeping apart from each other and we'll cheerfully roll out the red carpet and provide chauffeur service for you.

No need of a taxi license, "car rental with Chauffeur" is legal, and has existed for ages.

They will also drive for the main local UberX competitor, "Chauffeur Privé".

I would guess that the majority of the Google automatic chauffeur's high-level behavior isn't explicit, but rather "arises" from implicit subroutines about following the flow of traffic.

In France, you need a license delivered by the state or be a so called "VTC" (vehicle with chauffeur), which is somewhat like a taxi except that VTCs cannot pick up clients without getting a reservation from a customer.

Cause even if UberPop is banned, VTC (Vehicule de Tourisme avec Chauffeur) are now legal and make those licenses quite useless (or at least the investment isn't nearly as justified as before).
