Protip for anybody visiting India. Uber and Ola don’t really offer anything fancy as far as cabs go, but it’s important to choose the higher end options “Uber premier” to get the more “vetted” drivers. UberGo drivers are often newer and more reckless, and drive cars that are closer to a rickshaw with doors than sedans. UberXL doesn’t really offer much improvement either as drivers still lean towards newer or sleep deprived.

I wish either Uber or Ola would try to offer an option in all the major cities offering new Honda or Toyota cars with drivers that have been trained and tested by company staff, but it seems like government cab aggregator policies wouldn’t allow the companies to be so involved with these details
