      Md Karim, a taxi driver since 2014, testified in opposition to Intro 277. He praised the introduction of e-hail offers by Curb, which has increased his earnings and provided passengers with more options.

      • Karim reports earning about $400 per week through Curb's e-hail platform
      • He views Curb as a positive force in the industry, helping taxis compete with Uber and Lyft
      • The speaker believes that offering passengers a choice between Uber, Lyft, and Curb benefits both drivers and riders
