Uber’s ridesharing option, is revolutionizing transportation choice around the world. At the touch of a button, uberX connects residents and visitors looking for a ride with local transportation providers at reasonable prices.

Our uberX ridesharing driver partners use their personal cars, choose their own hours and supplement their income by utilizing Uber’s lead-generation technology platform.

The Uber app connects you to a driver wherever you are and whenever you need it. Our technology makes it possible to focus on safety for riders and drivers before, during, and after every trip in ways that other alternatives can’t. Uber drivers go through a screening process before being activated on the app, and the two-way rating helps us maintain the best experiences onboard for both driver and riders, they also direct us to  take action when there is an issue with your ride. Learn more about  Uber’s safety here. If you’ve got questions about insurance click here.

To request a car, you just need to download the Uber app on your smartphone. After signing up, you can simply determine your pickup location and ask for an Uber car to pick you up.

ProTip: estimate the cost of your trip before starting the ride, by entering the address of your destination.

We are excited to join you in your everyday rides. If you can’t get a car first time round, don’t worry! We will be working hard to get plenty of cars on the road.
