Probably half of the 45,000 registered Uber drivers in L.A. used to be Cab drivers. And, many of the drivers are just trying to make an extra buck, as well. All of them are professionals because they are being paid. Just some more professional than others....and that word 'professional' can be very subjective and have many meanings, both positive and negative.
