I'm checking Uber right now. "No car is available." What's the point of this if nobody ever drives. Seems about the same as Yellow Cab.
It just started. They will slowly add drivers. Thats the business model. It's basically being piloted right now. When LSU starts back up, it will explode.
Whats yellow cabs excuse?

We can, but your opinion is absolutely atrocious. You can keep saying stupid shite if you want, just trying to help you out.

It's been open for a week in a half. They need more drivers. Atleast they are completely honest and upfront about not being available instead of making you wait an hour

They have digital record of your travel so if you don't stop driving, it'd be pretty hard to rape someone.
I have seen some cars get waved down because they see that blue glowing U in the windshield.

Then you have to open the app and officially get the ride started. You have to pay through the app which is also where the meter is.

No cars available at noon on a Tuesday when school is out approximately a month after launch.

how do you look at the drivers in your area without actually booking a ride?

so if the YC driver said it would be an hour and it was an hour you would be cool with that?

it will take a few months for them to get up to capacity. But once kids realize they can drive dad's car and make $20k/year by driving part time there will be a lot of drivers.
Uber is awesome

I would be able to look for a different way to get home, instead of "oh yeah we're on our way!" And I sit there for an hour.

Maybe. I could see someone just hopping in and saying I will give you X amount of cash to take me here.

Wouldn't be thrilled by any means, but at least I'd have a legitimate timeline. This is exponentially better than hailing a cab, being promised a 15 minute wait and waiting an hour or never having one show.

You never called and canceled so that driver is wasting time trying to pick up someone who isn't there.
So his time isn't worth anything? You sound like a selfish piece of shite.
