Its official now. Over 11 Thousand Uber X drivers now. No wonder we cant make any money. There was 5500 drivera 7 months ago. What a Bad ratio to be working under for all of us.

where are these 11000 drivers? How is this number official?

According to the Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC), 14,088 Uber cars are registered in New York City

Why are you posting the stats of NYC in a Sydney forum mate?

i felt that 11000 drivers was a lot for sydney since New York had around 20 000 drivers.
and there is some official count in new york rather than a claim in sydney

11,000 on the books, but how many active ?

Like me. I have not driven for almost 6 weeks now. Or more I think. And, they haven't deactivated me either. Went online tonight for one hour from work to home. No pings. But didn't want one, just wanted to see if they deactivated me for not driving.

I remember reading an article that said out of 18000 uber partners in NYC only 3000 would be active at any one time on average.
