Ed, it appears as though there is a miscommunication. Idid not intend to
imply that I would "never" be able to use Uber pool; I simply expressed a
concern. I hope this clarification helps. 

From,
Lisa Irving

Hello,
When my app says the driver has arrived, and he is not in front of me, I
give him a call to find out where he is.
Hope this helps,

> Earlier this week I heard on the news that Uber is test piloting a new
policy in four major U. S. Cities outside of California. Essentially, you've
got two minutes to find the Uber car or  the driver can cancel the ride;
leave and you get charged. This evening I received an email from Uber. Uber
is instituting this same practice with Uber Pool in San Diego.

work against blind and visually impaired passengers and individuals who
cannot move quickly.

The national Federation of the blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want.
Blindness is not what holds you back.
