Uber (and other similar apps) are expensive than traditional taxi where I live.

You couldn’t pay me to take a taxi again, Uber can get as expensive as they want (Eventually it’ll start to be cheaper to just rent a car for the day lmao)

I’ll still take an Uber because I’m an average drunk and I don’t want to be behind the wheel (you don’t want me there either). I’ll walk 10 miles before I take a taxi though.

As in, on average you’re drunk, or your drunk as often/much as the average person?

Here where I am from, we use an app called FreeNow. Works like a charm. I use taxi almost every day. For me, each € matters. Believe me, Uber is outrageous here.

Ah well the Taxi scene is a little different in the EU (At least the few countries I’ve been too), it’s been a pleasant experience, nice modern streamlined process, although I’ve never had a chance to use a EU taxi outside the big city, so it might be a similar experience in those cases as the US

US Taxi industry is shit lmao

I’d still take that over ever using a taxi again.

Most are a lot more like Uber and a lot less like taxis of 15 years ago now.
