Same. London black cabs are fairly expensive, and at busy times (like just after pubs and bars close at night) you can have a really hard time trying to find one. I don&#x27;t know what the deal is with the non-black cabs in London ... but they seem more shady, it&#x27;s much harder to tell if the driver is registered or just some dude with a car, so I just avoid them. Uber solves both these problems. I and my friends are in our 30s, and we nearly all have been using Uber exclusively since it arrived.
