and 511 other cities worldwide

some taxi driver unions have called Uber drivers "pirate taxis"

uber和taxi driver的話題其實一直沸沸扬扬的
這次去KL也想體驗下uber(其實我本來plan第三天才試試下,from ikea to one utama)
結果沒想到真派上用場了

去之前有找資料和video,可惜都沒找到(limited info)
有想過要print screen寫一寫blog的
but那晚的情況嚇人,不敢輕擧万動
我搭uber的詳細情形(link

steps 大概是
1. download uber app
2. register as members and log in (either email or facebook login)
3. select payment type(cash or bank transfer)

when u need a ride, open the app
4 see got any icon car nearby or not(if yes only can continue step below?)
Actually no need to see got car icon nearby also can?
5 choose the driver?
6 set your pick up location
(made it accurate to your current stand point,so driver can find u easier,"some times" gps location facing some problem, , missplacing gps)
7 set destination point

The actual order of the steps i can't remember well, may be wrong a bit.
I miss the step to set accurate pick up point & check fares(dunno how to check and don't dare to press it that time)


個人感覺這發明不錯,找不到司機時,可尋找nearby的uber



後來我有問了問當過uber driver的同事,
他說其實他們有download另外一個app(uber partner)
register, 然後開工時就online,等待顧客,他們不知道乘客的destination
然後可以選擇reject or accept的
他說uber不好賺,Grab比較好賺
大致就是這樣(有開了他電話的app給我看)

不死心的再找,找到了uber tutorial

Another website that print screen the steps(can printout and practice it)
