When I'm crossing a street and a car flies through the intersection nearly hitting me, it's usually an Uber driver. Were taxi drivers so desperate to speed through cities and reach their next fare as quickly as possible?

Yes, Taxi drivers were much worse about this. This is a gross generalization but based on my experience Taxi drivers drive much more aggressively and have more disregard for traffic laws, but are also generally more skilled.
