Uber has been one of the most popular cab firms worldwide for some time, and Bolt are setting themselves up as competition. Bolt began in Estonia but soon moved to other parts of the world.

It is hard to say which will be most successful, but both are expanding. Change Both companies are changing the way driving occurs, although neither are doing anything for the reputation of cab…
