    The public transit system near me offers an Uber-like service. From what I read, it’s cheaper than Uber, but wait time are really long (a couple hours), and you can’t use it to move between cities, even though the service is available in a metro area which spans many cities.

    It’s a option, but doesn’t seem like a great option.
