Happy New Year, Great Britain!

After a several New Year’s Eves under our belt, we’ve learned that millions of people in cities around the world rely on Uber for a safe, reliable ride to and from their celebrations. This year, we wanted to spotlight how riders in the UK used Uber when ringing in the New Year. Check out these 5 fun facts!

 

 

Sometimes one celebration isn’t enough! Eight party hoppers took more than 5 rides throughout the evening.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t be late to the party! 3594 riders arrived just in time to ring in the New Year, getting out of their cars within 9 minutes of midnight.

 

 

 

 

 

Share the ride and the cost! More than 26,000 riders used our split fare feature when heading to and from their celebrations!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Be there soon! 1177 riders used our “Share Status” feature to let their friends and family know they were on their way.

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you to the thousands of drivers who moved the UK safely, and to the riders who let us be part of their evening. Here’s to 2017: we hope you we hope you’ll join us again for the ride.
