- Transport authorities should account for biases in the data they use and encourage use of adequate metadata.
- Mandatory private-public data sharing should be limited. Only where clear benefits to all parties exist and public authorities have capacity to handle the data should they be considered.

- Whatever data is collected and whoever holds it, dats should be an integral part of more flexible regulation of emerging transport services.
