The difference is that taxi services usually had one single rate no matter the time or day (at least where I'm at).

But that doesn't mean you know the exact rate between two arbitrary points, especially if there are taxes or tolls.

You don't know the exact rate with Uber or Lyft, either. It depends on how long the trip ends up taking, how far the trip ends up taking, etc.
