>In a lot of countries (80%+) taxi drivers are rude, try to price gouge, try to scam you or try to take longer routes.
I have had every experience you explained with Uber. People driving me weird ways around my city to make the trip longer, rude, attempting to add a cleaning charge with no reason, or the classic "Hey if you cancel the ride and give me $10 I can get you there."
