I was recently in Ft Lauderdale for a long weekend. Our Uber drivers were retired construction workers, real estate agents with free time and a mom. All were looking for an extra buck and worked when they wanted. Vehicles spotless and everyone a pleasure to talk to. The drivers and passengers rate each other on the app. I will never take a filthy stinking taxi again.
Yeah your chances of getting somebody that speaks English are so much higher in a rideshare than a taxi.
