Depends when you think people order a Uber. Is it when they are stood on
the pavement outside the venue in the pouring rain, or perhaps five
minutes earlier when they are inside in the warm and can more
comfortably use their phone to order a car to arrive in five minute's
time?

Different people will do different things. Also, I don't know what it's
like where you live, but here in London it doesn't rain that often.

Last time I summoned an Uber I was already out on the street when I
summoned it. I was at a bus stop and the countdown thingy showed that
there were no convenient buses for another quarter of an hour.
