Ive also had an experience where my lyft driver worked for Uber also. She said the clientele is different for each company. Lyft is more hip and friendly people. Uber seemed to be richer looking and less talkative.

Living in San Diego, Ubers $10 Tijuana trips will be a huge success.

My brother once described the difference to me as "Use Lyft if you want to talk to the driver, Uber if you don't". It's not just the clientele that are different, but the drivers act differently too. In my experience, Lyft drivers are more prone to trying to strike up a conversation, whereas Uber drivers rarely try and initiate.
