Fair Fare
Fair Fare is a neutral fare check for taxis, ride apps and airport transfers in the US, Canada and the UK. It works out what a licensed taxi meter should charge from each city's official tariff (24 cities), what Uber and Lyft typically charge in New York from the city's own trip records (21.6 million trips), the cheapest time to ride, airport pickup rules, drop-off charges and flat fares (36 airports), whether a fare paid looks fair, with the next steps and a ready message if not, and whether a New York driver's licence is active. Every answer has a say field with a ready-made summary.
