It's pretty good. (Lyft also has the express concept, which I've used a few times. Most of those times the driver was under the impression it was a Lyft Line, and were wondering why there weren't any more rides showing up).
This is a really frustrating part of the experience. Why is the driver offering to deviate from the optimized, streamlined route to go into a small one-way street just so the passenger can get dropped of 15 feet closer to their destination? And now we gotta make 3 right turns to get back to our route?
