More Rides , More Traffic

With increased usage of ride sharing companies, do you feel it is easier to get around the city? The question is up for debate.  Ride sharing companies such as Uber or Lyft have attracted many new customers, especially with the constant transit problems in New York City.  Service is either too slow or unreliable.

On the other hand more usage of ride sharing apps means adding more vehicles to the road that would have not been there before. A study estimates that 49 percent to 61 percent of ride hailing trips either would have been made my foot, biking or public transit.

Do you feel like ride sharing is helping patrons get around faster or are they adding more congestion to the city?
