This is incredible. This should be replacing Uber and Lyft for any and all solo riders. It’s cheaper, faster, and so much fun. My coworkers were shocked and a little concerned when my Split Driver, Steve, showed up to my office to pick me up. He fitted me with a helmet, gave me a head sleeve, and asked how comfortable I was with lane splitting. I got on and we took off through the streets of Santa Monica It was so fun to pass by all the cars sitting in traffic at lights, and seeing the faces of people who might’ve been realizing they’re looking at the future of ride sharing and possibly the thing that LA needs most, a way to beat the traffic. Steve was a talented rider and great conversationalist, and I’ve got nothing but wonderful things to say about the service that he is providing for people living and commuting on the west side. You might be scared to ride, that’s ok. Tell Steve, he’s happy to ride in a way that makes you most comfortable. But once the trust in his abilities has been built, I can’t recommend enough that you take advantage of the opportunity to skip the traffic. I made it from Santa Monica to West Adams in about 20 minutes, in the middle of rush hour. No other service or commuting option can offer to save you that much time. Thanks so much Steve! You’re the man!

Amazing! Just finished my second ride and it literally cuts my commute down by 40min!! Normally it takes me about 1hr and 30min to get to and from work because of the traffic between Santa Monica and downtown. Note to developers: glitch when first calling ride: It appeared that the drivers eta was 0min. The driver (James) had not received my ride request until I called him. He instructed me to cancel and re-request it again and it was resolved. Also a log of my past rides would be helpful since I had to add this tech issue to my review. Thanks! (Oooh! And since there aren’t a lot of drivers, it would be cool to receive an alert if a driver is available in my area so I can consider it an option)

College student from Indonesia here! I’ve used split since it first came out and it never disappoints me. Traffic is just horrible in LA but with split, we go just like wooshh. Split drivers are so friendly too. I know Stephen, Victor, Thurston, Christopher, Cory (they are like brothers to me). I noticed myself playing at my phone most of the time in the car but with motorcycle, I pay attention more to my surroundings. I also love the adrenaline and the wind. I ride motorcycle a lot back home so having a motorbike ride sharing really brings back memory. Feeling scared or unsafe is totally understandable for first time rider but bet you’re gonna go with split again once you try. I hope all the best for split !!
