Not sure what’s been up but since the pandemic it’s been this way for the most part. Seems to be the same regardless if your destination is NY, further in NJ (eg Union), or even places like EWR.

Nj drivers can’t accept NYC rides so they usually cancel since the app seems to match NJ drivers with NYC bound passengers despite the rule. I usually message my driver first after matching and ask if they are ok driving to nyc. This saves a lot of time for everyone.

Don't worry about activation, they always warn on it (but let you go), it's just important you have the ticket. Checking is rare but most common at Hoboken.

I don't personally like the activation system. It takes longer than some trips, and is a relic of paper tickets. For the app it doesn't make sense.

Never crossed my mind why there were no baskets at the store. And I never use the carts cause of the geofence and b/c they’re one wheelie away from not existing.

So walking out with the basket isn't stealing because it's not for sale?

Home Depot has such a problem with people walking out with power tools right past the employees that they're implementing a system where the tools need to be activated digitally at checkout to be able to work.
