If taxis in this country weren't as filthy and unreliable, then there wouldn't have been as much demand for Uber. I loathe the idea of taking a taxi. The drivers barely speak English, speak on one of their five mobiles during the entire taxi ride and it smells like DEATH in there. I remember the last taxi ride I ever vowed to take: landed at the airport and had a horrible headache. I get in a taxi and the guy, I swear, it smelled of someone not having washed himself in 60 days combined with a giant turd in the front seat. Then he's got this overpowering air refresher and I came THIS close to literally throwing up. Even hanging my head out of the window did not help.
Uber for the WIN each and every time. I have yet to have a bad experience. Been using it for close to 2 years now.
