Personally I would say it is a mix. There are some Uber drivers that definitely can be a bit more aggressive but still safe. I suppose it depends on the area/time of day but I'll walk past the line of taxis to get an Uber. If it takes 2 minutes longer to get to my destination, the experience is much better. Hell there have been a few times I wanted the trip to take longer because of the pleasant and engaging conversation. One pattern I've noticed, taxis honk their horn constantly and obnoxiously. Uber drivers rarely do it. When you hear someone honking their horn for upwards of ten straight seconds, it's a taxi.
