Here's another complaint. They have no choice ! Yeah you do don't go out and drink ! Attention everyone be aware off uber. They're taking advantage of people who go out and drink. After 1:30 they're price is sky high. Friday October 2nd around 1:40 am they had charged me 3 times more what I usually pay same distance same time. Next day October 3 I took taxi and taxi was cheaper. Uber are taking advantage for whom are out and drinking so they don't have choice. Be aware and God bless
My response to this:
This is called a surge and it is because most smart drivers are in bed at that time. Surge is based on supply and demand. Many seasoned Uber drivers are tried of picking up drunks late at night and having to stop for the rest of their shifts get their cars professionally cleaned after drunks puke in them.
If you don't like the surge you are most welcome to take a yellow cab and puke in there.

Uber and Lyft set their rates and increase them where the requests are greater than the drivers available in the area. Sidecar does not have a surge system but the drivers are allowed to charge as much as 2 times the Sidecar rates, if they have driven the required amount of rides (15 - 25) after signing up.
Below is what the driver app looks like when there is a surge.
Some driver will actually drive to the red areas on the map if they are near. They should not do that. This results in more divers in the area and a reduction of the surge price. Drivers should stay put and let the surge come to them.
Seasoned riders have multiple rideshare apps and they can decide which one to take or even take a Yellow cab.
