I know how much my ride will be and I know it doesn't vary based on what happens along the way. L

That's funny - ride fares change, and only in an Uber have I been kicked out of the car "because the app crashed" in the middle of an abandoned road, or had a very intoxicated person pick me up, or try to drive recklessly in hazardous conditions.

I happily pay a premium for none of these things again.
