How soon can we get these in New York?! This is a fantastic idea. While it is not a solution to the problem of harassment or the dangers of allowing some strange man in a strange car drive you to your front door, it is a start. I can understand why some may find it sexist or alienating, but I think it makes the taxi process much safer. It can be very uncomfortable AND scary being driven home late at night by a stranger trying to make a pass at you. If they drop you off at your home or apartment, now they know where you live and could pursue you further if they were creepy and so inclined. At least in a pink cab late at night, I wouldn't have to be worried that my cabbie might turn down an alleyway and rape or hurt me.

i say definitely! i'm not a feminist by any means, but i was sexually harassed by a male taxi driver in cancun nearly 9 years ago, and it creeps me out to think that kind of behavior is so rampant in mexico. do what you gotta do!

this is a very good idea! for a countries, where is lots of crime and stuff, so
i'll hope they'll do that in other ”criminal” countries as well, like in columbia or venezuela for example.

I am a women and i this so called"solution" is contradictory. The womens rights activists want equal rights correct? so why create a barrier and separate women and men from the same rights, now they are stereotyping men and discriminating against men. you mean to tell me there are no gay women that are employed, or that all gay women wont flirt with passengers.. i see the point, and sounds like the service in essence works well ..just don't claim that is for womens rights.

its not a new concept, they have all-female ones in the uk, if im ringing a normal one i always ask if its possible to have a female driver, when youre drunk and vulnerable you feel safer
