I live in NYC with a lot of one-way streets, including my home. I actually use two different addresses for my home depending on whether I'm being picked-up or dropped-off. Otherwise, when being dropped off, Uber has sent me on some really odd detours just to get me exactly in front of my house. Instead, I'd rather get dropped off at a corner and walk 200 feet.
In theory, by collecting the location data 5 minutes after, they can get a sense of this where and to whom this happens, and automatically correct for it. I don't know if it'll work, but if it does, it'll definitely be a benefit to me.
