Voooom!!! Alert I am here. Who are you? You requested me though. I am Uber.  Many have been wondering or rather still not aware of what’s an uber.Well so was I back then.

According to an online; Uber is a transportation com and, headquartered in San Francisco CA. It offers the Uber App, which you can use to submit a trip request and it’s automatically sent to an Uber driver nearest to you, alerting the driver to your location. Your driver uses their own cars; they pick the customer and bring the person to the requested destination. The App calculates the distance and fare, and transfers the payment to the driver without you having to say a word or even grab your wallet. That means safety for both the rider and driver

Uber is the   “Thing” in towns, it has that “Thing”. At some point it has made people feel like they have made it in life, but I am, not attacking those who can afford it. Allow the taxi users to be comfortable in the taxis. Continue using it; but it will always humble your pocket. Don’t worry.

Uber helps people get a ride at a push of a button- there’s is no waiting on the streets or walking through unfamiliar neighbourhoods. The minicab affords its customers the most convenient way to get a safe, reliable and affordable ride. The App detects your location, tells you about driver in advance (not the way you will think).I mean the distance and type of car.

Perhaps the biggest threat to the traditional taxi doesn’t come from the massive surge in competition, but from the fact that the Uber experience is actually pretty good. All you need is a smartphone and the Uber app. Press a button, and a car will pick you up. You don’t even need to go to an ATM – it just charges your credit card.

Compare that to a traditional taxi firm. Unless you hail a cab from the street, you need to call a dispatch office. If you’re in a foreign country where you don’t speak the language, this can be immeasurably challenging. Reatlegile Ratlagane a TUT 2nd year Journalism student who is a frequent user said” Uber is safe, fast and when you want to enjoy your travelling alone Uber is the best way to go”
