This is why they are also tell you the license plate number.

I don't need to know what a Honda Whatever looks like to know that if the licence plate and my app both say "ABC123", that's my uber.

My uber is a white Toyota camry? So helpful, there definitely aren't 7 of them parked outside the club each waiting for their uber rider and or kidnap victim.

the model, and especially the colour, are good ways to narrow down what youre looking for at a glance. then check the license plate.

I don't know my colors, so I just stop every car I see and read the license plate

I feel like I get the joke, but I'd like it explained in hopes that it's better than what I think it is.

I'm certain you understand, you are intoxicated, departing from the entertainment establishment before it closes, and you are responsible so you take it's upon yourself to secure safe, sober transport home. The application you use to order the ride informs you that your designated driver will arrive in a "Kia Chevy Juke". Despite being absolutely incapable of clear thought, you, or another member of your party is trying very hard to ensure you all enter the correct vehicle to avoid potential danger from nefarious individuals. Also, you have chosen to partake in this activity in a cold time of year, and as it is 4 o'clock in the morning, you are all quite cold.

The thing is when you get out at 4 pm to wait a bit for the first buses. Forget about cars.

Serena in the back freezing when the others are just looking cool. Funny screen cap.

I haven't used uber or any similar app that much, but the times I have they all have pictures of the car right there so you can easily identify them.
