pre-pandemic for everyone else too, right?

It used to be 5 to 10 bucks to uber to my local bar, depending on how busy it was. Currently it's 15 to 30.

This is normal right

It's also 10x more expensive than the gas it would take to drive yourself.

Also, if you're going to a bar with the intention of drinking you shouldn't drive anyway.

in the UK it's cheaper than bus and train services too

I had a journey recently:

Taxi: 56
Train: 42
Bus: 26
Uber: 18

Wat

its madness

And uber takes you right to the destination rather than a station 2 miles away

it's hiked up considerably in response to a driver shortage and policies ensuring the drivers receive a wage. the jig is up for us without cars.
