Looked on the net for a cab nearest me. All foreign speaking. On map looked like was were out of a home or inside a jiffy lube type place. Called a relative.
I live in the DC suburbs; all the ‘regular’ cab drivers here who belong to traditional cab companies are immigrants. In my area, a lot of them are Ethiopian. They’re excellent drivers, polite, and speak understandable if not very good English.
Unfortunately, that’s not the case with many Uber, Lyft, drivers here.
