Totally agree.  Uber could come up with a quick way to do fingerprint background checks.  Just have the driver, go through a drive-through background check stop.  It might take 5 minutes, but I thought Uber &amp; Lyft drivers had a short orientation anyway.  Kill 2 birds.<p>After reading Josh Baer&#x27;s article, I do agree with him that its a lot easier to point at a startup and say something is easy, without all the knowledge from the inside.  I am sure there is a lot of data on why this is hard to do.<p>I do think that part of this boils down to liability.  If a certain percentage of drivers are known offenders of some kind, Uber or Lyft could get sued for letting them remain on their platform.<p>Super sad to see Uber go.  Its a great app. I use it almost daily.  Reality hasn&#x27;t set in yet.
