I wonder if it's because Uber algorithms are trained using Uber driver data (taxi drivers tend to be very aggressive drivers).

I don't find that at all, I feel like they're happy to take their time and make more money.

Uber drivers don't get paid by the minute. It's a fixed fare.

Depends on where you live. Uber has a per-minute rate in some places.

No, drivers are paid by distance and mileage. Uber is paid fixed fare.
