Why use GPS, just walk to an intersection so you know where you are, and set the needle there.
If driver comes on the other side of street, maybe cross the street.
A tiny bit of effort goes a long way...
- nikanj 8y agoAt least in the pastUber didn't use the needle GPS coordinates, it picked the nearest street address from the pin. Fun times were had, when trying to get a pick-up from an outdoor event.
- lazerwalker 8y agoI broke my foot a year ago and spent three months on crutches. For a lot of that period, crossing the street or walking down the block was a meaningfully difficult task for me. Whenever I called a rideshare, I very explicitly set the needle to exactly where I was. It's amazing how frequently I'd have a driver park across the street and a block away, and get angry when I didn't come to them.
