Yes I do. Uber / Lyft is fantastic for short rides. BP to flatbush, etc. The drivers need to act up to a certain standard (enforced by feedback) so the cars are nice, drivers friendly. Its super safe because the drivers are tracked and you can always complain to uber if you have a complaint. Its also great cause you know when they are coming exactly. As the ride gets longer though – It seem to get more pricier. SO a trip to JFK can be 55$ on Uber and say 30$ with a local car service. There is no money transfer on Uber. Its all credit card so thats good and bad.
Its also great if you travel often and dont want the hassle of calling a car service or renting a car every time. In my opinion , Uber is better then owning a car but its no good for long distances. Ask me any question and I will try to help. I use them all the time
