Within the city center and residential areas, the speed limit typically drops to 25-30 mph to ensure the safety of pedestrians and residents.

I liked nothing. One thing could've been better though...How about having a car available when a customer shows up with a reservation and a confirmation number. Yeah..that part could've been better for sure.

Cons:

I could’ve been provided a car with the proper amount of air in each tire. It would be nice if more than one employee was working at a time.
