交通服务比较

The line graph illustrates the daily number of trips made by yellow taxis, Uber and Lyft in New York City over the period from 2015 to 2018. Overall, while yellow taxis saw a declining trend in daily trips, the two ride-sharing services experienced substantial growth in usage throughout the period. By the end of the timeframe, Uber had surpassed yellow taxis to become the most popular service among the three. In detail, yellow taxis were the dominant choice at the start of 2015, with around 410,000 daily trips, peaking at nearly 450,000 trips per day in the first few months. However, this figure gradually decreased, dropping to just over 300,000 daily trips by early 2018. By contrast, Uber started with only about 60,000 daily trips in January 2015, before rising consistently to overtake yellow taxis in mid-2017. It reached a peak of roughly 450,000 trips per day by early 2018, making it the most used service. Lyft, though less popular than the other two, also saw a steady climb from almost zero trips in 2015 to around 110,000 daily trips in early 2018, before a slight dip at the end of the period.
