In the capital of the United Kingdom, Uber has lot its license. And if it loses its appeal, then Londoners and visitors will have to call a black cab, use the tube or find another ride-sharing service. Uber first had its license suspended in London in 2017. The city didn't like how the company responded to serious crimes and questions about its safety. But it's been given probation period since then, which allowed Uber to keep getting rides.

優(yōu)步公司在英國首都被吊銷執(zhí)照。如果優(yōu)步上訴失敗,那倫敦市民和游客將不得不乘坐黑色出租車、地鐵或?qū)ふ移渌橈L(fēng)車服務(wù)。2017年,優(yōu)步首次被倫敦暫停牌照。倫敦不贊同優(yōu)步公司對嚴(yán)重犯罪行為的回應(yīng)方式,同時(shí)對其安全性表示質(zhì)疑。不過之后,優(yōu)步獲得了試用期,得以繼續(xù)運(yùn)營。

Now, though, Transport for London says it's identified a, quote, pattern of failures that have put passengers at risk, including thousands of trips that were given by unauthorized drivers, some of whom have been fired but faked being authorized ones. Uber says it's changed its business and is now, quote, "setting the standard on safety". It calls London's decision extraordinary and wrong.

但現(xiàn)在,倫敦交通局裁定,優(yōu)步的“失敗模式”使乘客處于危險(xiǎn)之中,比如未經(jīng)授權(quán)的駕駛員接載乘客數(shù)千次,有些已被解雇的駕駛員偽裝成獲授權(quán)司機(jī)繼續(xù)接載乘客等。優(yōu)步表示,公司已做出了更改,現(xiàn)在已設(shè)置安全標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。優(yōu)步稱倫敦的決定令人意想不到,而且是錯(cuò)誤的。

You can still order an Uber there. The service is allowed to keep operating while the appeals process plays out. But there are concerns about the future of its 45,000 drivers in London if it permanently loses its license there.

現(xiàn)在人們?nèi)钥梢栽趥惗厥褂脙?yōu)步的叫車服務(wù)。在上訴期間,該服務(wù)獲準(zhǔn)可以繼續(xù)運(yùn)營。但如果優(yōu)步在倫敦被永久吊銷執(zhí)照,那公司4.5萬名駕駛員的未來將令人倍感擔(dān)憂。

There are also concerns about Uber's revenues. London makes up a significant part of those and the company is facing more competition there from other ride-sharing services.

優(yōu)步公司的收入同樣令人感到擔(dān)憂。倫敦市場是優(yōu)步收入的重要組織部分,而現(xiàn)在優(yōu)步在倫敦面臨著來自其他順風(fēng)車服務(wù)的更多競爭。
