The long Fourth of July weekend is upon us and besides seeing a lot more fireworks this weekend you will see a lot more New York State troopers on the roads.
Buffalo, if you are going out for New Year's Eve and you plan on drinking, don't even bother driving. There's going to be TONS of ride sharing out there.
Lyft has teamed up with New York State Assemblymen to offer a discount on rides...
It's been life changing since ride sharing has (finally) made its way to Buffalo. Lyft has released the Top 50 cities who use the app and where each city's most popular destination is.

June 29th can not come here fast enough. After a long, hard fought battle, ridesharing programs like Lyft and Uber will finally be able to come to the Queen City and fully operate.
While Uber seems to have thousands of drivers registered to go here in Western New York, its competitor Lyft doesn't seem to have the same strength...
They announced the official first day for Uber and Lyft in Buffalo and now, it's time to get ready! Buffalo is the largest town in America without Uber or Lyft so, chances are if you've been out of town you've used ride sharing.
