Uber announces its new, worse version of a bus

Uber announced a bunch of new shuttle options, along with other stuff, at its GO-GET event. Users will be able to book shared rides up to seven days in advance.

Much of this news concerns shuttles and expanded ride sharing options, as Uber states in its promotional materials that “we cultivate the magic of human interaction.” Ah, yes. This lets users reserve up to five seats up to seven days in advance for transportation to and from major events like concerts and basketball games, though it's also available for trips to the airport. Uber has partnered with Live Nation to bring these shuttles to certain venues throughout the summer, including Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium and Charlotte’s PNC Pavilion.
