Rideshare, maybe to much sharing?
Ridesharing sometimes feels like an inherently vulnerable and risky method of transportation. Regardless of security checks and balances, users get into cars they don't know with people they don't know.

But there's another risk to ridesharing that could be lurking in the upholstery and carpeting: bedbugs.
Bedbugs are nothing new, but a recent report about a Dallas, Texas, terminator treating rideshare vehicles is freaking people out.
