I am from the left coast. When I want to get somewhere I normally just use an ap. I was visiting my family in Mooresville so I verified that the big three : Uber, Lyft & Sidecar came out there. One of them seemed to and seemed to have vehicles available. Then, the clock struck 4 and everything dried up.
Luckily, there was also Yelp. I saw Car-olina car service & was picked up within minutes. I wad lucky! Normally they require 24 hours planning. I was lucky for my prompt service and not one person had to drive me back to Charlotte.
