Sadly it's dependent on the area, my current area rideshare situation is so bad that it can take you almost an hour to get a driver who won't cancel your trip because they deem that your trip is not profitable enough. The system's fucked so you're pushed to get a car so you can have mobility. This is doubly so when you've started having children.
Uber became super expensive as well, post pandemic.
Luckily not in my area
we need alternatives to driving otherwise people won't be able to have kids
