In London I actually find the opposite. I like Uber and the convenience, but all the drivers are foreign and don't know their way around. More than 3 times I've been taken a hugely longer way round because the driver blindly followed the terrible Uber GPS, literally adding 15-20 minutes to the journey for no reason. Sure, I can get some of the cash back (and it is super easy to do so) but I would like for them just to take the right damn turning the first time.
Also they have to use the Uber GPS and not Google Maps, which several drivers have told me is quite inferior.
- umanwizard 11y agoLondon taxi drivers are a massive outlier, though. They are world famous for their knowledge and expertise. It's not really relevant to compare them to anything outside London.
- HappyTypist 11y agoDrivers can use any GPS they want. The uber gps is Apple maps.
