Outside of a major city like New York, getting around without a car can be almost impossible. In certain rural places, if a public transportation exists it is probably not even worth taking. Although Uber seems to be associated with major cities, using it in suburbs is actually much more useful. My experience in Florida was no exception.
Key Takeaways:
- The presence of Uber, a ride-hailing service, is something business travellers have come to take for granted in cities around the world.
- in parts of America Uber operates not just on the level of municipal districts but of states
- The licensing regime around Uber and its ilk is complicated. In much of America the service adheres to regulations made at the state or county level.
“”Never mind the snakes, alligators and Florida men; without a car I worried more about negotiating America’s creaky public transport system than fending off local fauna.””
