Eh? You book with the operator and only meet the driver when he arrives to
pick you up. A bit late then to cancel and ask for another driver.


I do think it's a shame you can't select your car on Uber based on
reviews etc - perhaps the clock could start when you select it, so you
still pay for selecting one further away if that is your preference.


I can see why not - a few malicious reviews could kill the drivers livelihood.


Uber doesn't care about the drivers' livelihoods. It relies on a
constant inflow of new muppets to replace the disillusioned leavers.
