You need to go 4 miles? That’ll be $38. Rush hour traffic fee an extra $1.50 per minute. Oops, I turned down a road with construction and just one lane; too bad the wet tarmac on either side traps you in here. Your total is $68.30. Cash only. ATM stops an extra $25 for up to a sixty-second stop, then $5 each 30 second wait.
It’s okay if you prefer summoning a ride from your phone, you don’t have to make up strawman arguments against it, lol. Don’t pretend like Uber/Lyft doesn’t have Surge and airport pricing! And “cash only”!? I was paying via card literally 20 years ago…
Fuck Uber. Use local taxis.
Local taxis need to step up their game.

(there’s a reason why nobody uses taxis anymore)

But with Uber and Lyft, you’re given a price upfront. I’ve read horror stories about shady taxi drivers with all of those examples and tricks.
