Uber latest email to customers and users has again celebrated the fact the government of the Australian state of New South Wales has said ‘yes’ to uberX.

iTWire covered last week’s announcement of uberX regulation in NSW here.

Uber’s email states: “Last week, the NSW Government announced it would embrace ridesharing and introduce legislation to ensure uberX continues to be part of the way Sydneysiders get around the city and opened the door for ridesharing in towns and cities across the State.

“Half a million Sydneysiders are choosing uberX as a safe, reliable and affordable way to get around. Over 5,500 drivers are earning a flexible income by moving people from A to B in their own cars.”

More below, please read on.

Uber’s email concludes by stating: “Ridesharing has now been welcomed in the ACT, WA and NSW, and we’re continuing to work with Governments across Australia to ensure that the same opportunities are available in every State and Territory.”

The email is signed off by ‘David, Henry and the Uber Sydney team’
