theres a new driver in town! the traditional cab light being replaced by your phone. ridesharing apps are popping up and some argue cab drivers are losing out. theyre sometimes 25% cheaper than your average cab ride but how much do you know about how they work? and is the city planning to step in? ( honk honk ) the sound of a truly big city. in chicago cabs are literally lined up. "allright take care." thousands of em. from yellow, red, white and blue. now, throw into the mix pink. "i like how they have the little mustaches on the car, honestly i think its cool." this is one of chicagos newest cabs, sort of. the pink mustache is the trademark for whats known as lyft, basically an app to find a ride. not a taxi, but a ride. on this day, the ride comes from luis. "its usually like northside, the loop." on a whim he applied online and

here we are. he uses his own car. a toyota corolla, tacks on the mustache, and hits the road. "so are you making money off it? its been pretty good. i dont want to throw out numbers . when they say you make 15 to 20 dollars they aint lying." which is why lyft isnt the only company capitalizing on the need for rides in chicago. uber rolled out uber x. then theres side car. same concept. your average person serving as a driver. easy enough but its created a bit of an issue. a stack of rules and regulations for licensed city cabs. actually, taxi medallions alone can cost more than 300-thousand dollars. see the problem! "theres pretty much no regulation in chicago of the ride sharing app." george, who follows the taxi industry through his chicago paper, is raising the red flags. who are these drivers? are there background checks? how about insurance? "what i want people to know is the pink mustache does not substitute for medallion that

chicago cabs have to have." luis will tell you lyft did an extensive background search on him. "cause it took me 3 weeks . if i had been charged with a d-u- i, any of that stuff." as far as insurance, the ridesharing apps say they take care of the added policies. either way chicago now has to figure out how to oversee these apps. in other cities theyve picked up speed too. san francisco, new york, l-a have all at one point kept those apps from operating. in l-a theyll start regulating them, not like a cab, but theyll follow some guidelines. "typically when we run into hurdles its often the city not understanding what were doing and then consumers step up and say this is an option we want." but what happens here in chicago? the citys department for consumer protection isnt saying, at least not yet. they declined an on-camera interview

about it until they can gather more data. in the meantime... "yall ready with 3." cab drivers are wondering what this new competition means for their bottom line. "i mean thats really not fair, but its chicago, nothing is fair in chicago." it all seems fair to luis though who has found a new way to meet his bottom line. "like they said its your friend with a car, there shouldnt be any concern over it." not clear when or 'if' the city will start regulating them. why are they allowed to operate without special licensing? think of it this way. everyone getting rides from lyft or uber is part of an app, almost like a friends network. no different than me calling my best friend for a ride and giving her ten bucks afterwards. there are a lot of lawsuits still pending. well see where it ends up.

we want to hear from you: would you use the rider-share service? text yes or no to 97999 or vote on line at wgntv.com/poll. we'll have results after tom skilling's 7- day forecast. some lakeview condo owners have turned "not-in-my-backyard" into "not-on-my front- sidewalk." residents of a building at addison and pine grove have filed a lawsuit against the city for putting up one of the new "divvy" bike sharing stations right outside their front door. the station takes up two parking spaces, but neighbors say they're more upset about the extra foot traffic, noise, and litter they say will come with the bike racks. they're asking a cook county judge to have the station removed. i really like the bike thing. it is really a good idea. we would

have been happy if they put it in the alley. it is in my front door. there is no place to put the car and no place to walk out the front door anymore. lakeview alderman james cappleman says many people in his ward don't own cars and can get good use out of the bike- sharing program. going green to stop west nile. coming up, a two-wheeled mission to squash mosquitoes before they hatch. the man convicted of leaking classified information makes a startling revelation. he now wants to be a woman. a new record-breaking coaster heading for six flags. marcus leshock has a preview straight ahead.

zero cases of west nile since its emergence in 1999. we work with 150 communities trading storm drains. each person out crete's 600 basins in a day. a computer system on the bicycle tracks each drop. it lets us leftrack were the treatments wee made and how much. timely adult mosquito control application can reduce the risks. look out. cutters may have standing water and treating that could keep your property mosquito free. a right, thank you. the rain has cooled things down a bit around chicago. but the milder temperatures won't last long. but tom skilling says another round of 90 degree days is on the way. his forecast is next.
