Remember its a price ESTIMATE.

If they quote you that it's going to be between $ and $, it shouldn't be more than that.  ::)

They charge for distance and time. The distance could increase due to an unforeseen detour and the time could increase due to heavy traffic. The final charge could certainly surpass the estimate.

Uber pool $5 flat rate
Every weekday, all uberPOOL rides that begin and end in Manhattan below 110th Street are $5 flat during commuting hours. That means you can enjoy the comfort of an Uber for the price of a latte

REQUEST WHEN YOU'RE READY

Your driver's time is valuable. Starting today, trip charges will begin 2 minutes after your driver arrives.

As a courtesy to your driver, please only request once you're ready to ride.

There are apps that allow you to do that. Just Google it.


I believe this is a pilot program in select markets.

Every single one of my trips, I get an Arab in the city.

I was actually referring to NYC. I wasn't clear. I might not be afraid here, but would be petrified there.

Who pays tolls, customer or driver? Does the estimate range include tolls?
