If you ask Dhruv: Uber is obviously the best mode of transportation. It provides you with reliable transportation in the form of rideshare while also giving you the option to utilize electric bikes and scooters. Use the code "fflhc" for a free ride if you're a new user.
If you ask Purvi: Dhruv is biased and Lyft is sometimes the cheaper and better option
