Taxi service is terribly expensive here in Reno so I am thinking of giving Uber a try. I have heard there have been a few bad experiences as in assaults, etc. because the drivers are not screened. Has anyone had any problems of this sort? Being a senior lady I don't want to save a couple of bucks if there is any real danger involved. It seems that a lot of blind individuals are using the service with good results so am I being silly to worry?

Ryan,
I have done the same. To avoid the reverse, be sure you tap "set pickup location" on the main screen. From there swipe to "add destination". This is where you place your destination. You can either get your fare estimate or request the ride on that screen.
Hope this helps.
Jeff

I don't know if It's fully accessible. The last couple rides, I kept reversing the pickup address and destination address.

I assume you mean the app to get a Uber ride. If so, yes it is accessible.
