They're in an odd position. They're like a bike-sharing system, where the endpoints of your trip aren't restricted to bike-sharing sites, which is cool. But they're wider than bikes, so they probably can't really use bike lanes, which puts them right back into regular traffic. You could say they're saving gas, but that cab you're not using is still driving around empty looking for someone else, and I doubt the pedi-cabs will reach a volume that will decrease the gasi-cab fleet size.
