Uber is an up and coming app based taxi company
that is headquartered in San Francisco, California. But it’s not
like most other taxi companies. It is different in a way, and it puts a better name
and face on taxi services.
Uber is a company run by every day people like
you and me, who are just looking for little bit of extra cash. Whether they be
an accountant, business man or another job requiring a degree, they sign up,
and in their free time they offer they’re time to help people out as a taxi.
In order for the person to become a drive they
must register they’re car and it has to meet requirements, of a new model and
must be a nice car. Most people who use this service are also doing pretty good
financially because you must have a Pay Pal account that is hooked up to a checking
account. This also makes it much safer for the driver because they never have
any cash on them, dropping the chances of them getting robbed.
Along with the plus of getting to ride in a nice
car the best part about Uber is that it costs half the price of a regular taxi
service. It also only charges you for one person, unlike the other cab services
that add an extra charge for additional people in the car; which if you’re
going a really long ways, it can all add up!
I was first told about this service by one of my
math teachers who had traveled to Florida and had about an hour drive from the airport
he was at to his hotel. He was picked up in a 2014 car and saved half the money
that he would've spent if he would've taken yellow cab or a different cab
company.
I think that the idea of having a company like
this is a very good idea because it saves people money to be driven around in nicer
cars and instead of nasty torn up cars driven by god knows who.
Uber has brought up many controversies between
other cab companies because it has dropped they’re business immensely, but hey
who wouldn't want to be driven in a luxury car for half the price?
