I wonder if drivers are able to obtain dual licenses to cover themselves either way?

Even if they can, as you say, if the other authorities take a similar stance this will be pointless.

I've never used Uber myself, but I do like the idea of a fixed price to prevent drivers ripping people off and being able to downvote drivers who are rude, drive badly, smell, are late etc.
