Taxi prices in Bilinga, Australia (about R8 to R10.50), have often been cheaper than those in other parts of the world, including most European ones. The Bilinga price used to be $1.90 to $2.50 a trip, so this cheaper fare is actually the average fare throughout the book from Bilinga to Melbourne; a less crowded city. Some Uber drivers are complaining about long waiting times, particularly on weekends. One driver, a former taxi driver, told me he's experienced trouble catching a cab during the morning rush hour. "I've tried jumping out of my car at 8:30am. The taxi drivers are too busy riding the bus." He has also been miffed by Uber's Monday morning and late afternoon pickup times, forcing him to drive the car full-time.
