Ubers UberX service lets pretty much anyone with a car make money as an amateur cab driver, but what if they dont actually want to get paid? Uber is now launching a ridesharing service in Beijing that allows drivers to offer rides without charging for any more than theyre spending on gas or other fees and maintenance. The service is called Peoples Uber, and it works just like the traditional Uber service: riders use the app to request a ride, and drivers use the app to find passengers. While drivers may be interested in Peoples Uber as a way to help improve local transit in their own small way, Ubers motivation for it is a bit less clear.
