i was at a girls house. wanted to go home at 1am. if using a car, she lives literally 8 minutes from my house. if i took bus it would have been about 20 all in all. i called local cabs... 'sorry we have no cabs in that area'
how is this life... downloaded uber and it said 2 mins away. i looked at it like fuck normal cabs, so shit cant even do a service they were meant to do
TYPE IN YOUR END DESTINATION AND THE AVERAGE PRICINGS WILL SHOW
This is what I always do before I ever send for a uber car. If surge pricing is going on, that usually lasts no longer than 20 mins and I just tell the app to tell me when it's over. Then get an Uber at normal price.

issue is if you're in a rush/waved you skip the 'get quote' button, which is dangerous during surge times

yeah but how many unlicensed cab drivers have been rapists since the dawn of time, can hardly blame uber for that
if anything uber is way safer as you can get a m8 to track your journey and all the drivers n shit are logged on your account

how hard is it to turn your GPS off though?
I think the issue is you're giving unlicensed cab drivers the appearance of being trusted by putting the Uber brand on it
and I think the reason for the gov gave as a reason for shutting them down was not doing proper background checks
