We actually prefer safer and slower ride, some Lyft/Uber drivers drive way too dangerously for no reason.

I could definitely see that. If you're not pressed on time it can be a smoother ride for sure. But if you're trying to get somewhere fast or efficiently like going to the airport, you'd want to get a regular Lyft/Uber otherwise you might miss your flight.
It would be cool if you can configure the ride preferences for how aggressive you'd like it to drive.

Well it doesn’t go to the airport today, because it doesn’t go on highways or out of the city. So i don’t think anyone has missed their flight.
I suspect with their new permits approved, you’ll see them drive on the highway soon, which will result in much faster trips where applicable.
I am really glad it’s not aggressive at driving - they drive how humans are supposed to - cautiously. Humans kill people regularly from aggressive driving.
