I had my first uber ride last week in L.A. and was thoroughly impressed. I was on a fairly long layover so I decided I wanted to go see a movie. There was a theater, in a mall, about 8 miles away. Although I had the uber app on my phone for couple years, I had never used the service. Also had my credit card info in the app too. I select uberx and notice there are MANY cars driving around the area. I hit selected (or something like that) and the car pulls up within seconds. He happened to be about a hundred yards away when I called for the car. I thought I would feel a bit uncomfortable getting into someone’s personal car but I really felt ok. The return trip, I waited 3 mins for the car to arrive. I’m hooked on Uber.
