[Nfbk] Uber is Launching in Louisville

[Kevin Pearl]

Nothing is confirmed, but Insider Louisville says they will be up and running by Derby. I find this unlikely, but here is a link to their story.

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 have the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back. NFB.ORG

The private car service is coming to town. You reserve a car via an accessible app for your smartphone. 

View rates for your city in the app. You can also enter your pickup and drop-off locations to get a fare quote for your trip.

CASHLESS & CONVENIENT. 
You don't need cash when you ride with Uber. Once you arrive at your destination, your fare is automatically charged to your credit card on file – no need to tip. We’ll also e-mail you a receipt.

SPLIT YOUR FARE. 
Simplify your life and your fractions. Invite your friends to split the fare. If your friends opt in, each person’s credit card will be charged equally. No more pay-me-backs or IOUs.

RELIABLE PICKUPS. 
When you request a ride, we’ll find a driver and let you track their location on the map. Feel free to put away your phone – we’ll text you when your ride arrives. Your driver’s name and car details appear in the app, and you can message or call if you need to.  

FEEDBACK MATTERS. 
Drivers not only meet Uber’s standards, they meet your standards. After your trip, you can rate your experience and leave additional feedback about your driver.
