Ford's Chariot van service — which has been hyped as a key addition to the urban transit network, but is little more than $4 bus rides along set routes in areas already well served by existing service — is proving to be a big, expensive failure.
The Uber driver who yesterday jumped the curb on Sixth Avenue, crashed into a storefront, and injured two pedestrians and a passenger was driving without a valid license, according to NYPD.
