No worries, Keith, driverless cars have cameras, they'll be able to see you and run you down and I'm sure they'll install a speaker underneath to let you know your car has arrived once it's on top of you *smile*

But, once they switch to driverless cars, I'm not sure how this will work.

If I am somewhere and order a cab I usually tell dispatch that I am visually impaired and have a guide dog and to please let the driver know they may need to let me know when they are there. Is there no way to include a similar comment when you book a ride via the Uber app?

Provided you have a good view of the sky and aren't in a building or a super-narrow area surrounded by high-rise buildings GPS accuracy should be 5 meters (about 16 feet) or for sure it should be 10 metres (about 32 feet). This mya not be good enough to find an exact spot, but good enough for most uses.

Before I was able to select my pick up in a list of choices, now I have to find where I am. The current position doesn't work very well, because we know that GPS are no so accurate. Moreover before I had more control on the app, but in the last updates uber has done a lot of steps back. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Deb Lewis Sent: Wednesday, December 7, 2016 12:35 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: issues with uber update I didn't have any difficulty with this latest update which I downloaded just now. So I would recommend deleting and reinstalling it. It logged in fine for me.
