Thank you. Spot on. To elaborate: even only 5 years ago, I would almost always drive unless I was sure it was going to get aggressive that evening. I bought a personal breathalyzer for $45 at Walgreens, because that's how common a need it was. I'd sit in my car for an hour if I was blowing hot. Don't close your eyes, because that's DUI... The deal with cabs in a town like that is that it is more luxurious than the nightlife itself. $100+ rides from Santa Monica to West Hollywood. $80 from Downtown to Los Feliz. After you track down a local number and call it, if you were lucky, they would even show up sometimes. (But never in under 40 minutes.) "Cash only, no change for a $20." I just had kind of a blowout with Uber, but even as bad as there support is, it's way above "professional" car services there.
