      Ideologically, I agree.

      But when I am putting a friend in the car to get them home after a night out or have too much luggage to keep it in the back seat? Liability, even with limits, goes a long way

          I mean, avoiding DUI and the hassle of a DD is often worth even the surcharge price. Same with not getting your car fucked up at an event.

          I try to avoid surge pricing times. But there is very much a reason people pay it
