So what?
It changes the regulations. Why should Uber drivers be allowed to ignore the law? Why should any commercial driver have to follow those same laws in that case?
Yes I think pizza guys should be required to follow the rules for commercial vehicles or drive a company vehicle that is properly insured.

On the road more than they would be? Sure OK. Here is the problem with that logic however. Right now I can go jump into my Denali and drive around the city into areas I have never ever seen for as long as I feel like it...and I can do it with friends sitting beside me. I can do this without vehicle inspections and I can do this without commercial insurance. I only be come illegal if they give me 20 bucks however. Doesn't seem to make a lot of sense now does it?

No it makes perfect sense because when you are doing something for money as well as being responsible for other people's safety the regulations should be stricter.

Does that somehow make the city less safe as well? Cause that's the argument you are making and its a completely disingenuous and hollow one at that because of the scenario I just painted.

It makes it as unsafe as not having them out there makes it unsafe because of drunk drivers.
