I did so and the driver arrives telling me they need gas and then starts heading for the San Diego Airport as they "know" better than the Uber app. The driver then proceeds to take all kinds of weird exits and I nearly miss my flight.

I tried a third time with Uber and they told me they had no drivers that wanted to drive to LAX so fortunately a very good friend drove me to LAX as I was quite upset I was going to miss my flight.

Needless to say those three Uber experiences put me off taking an Uber from San Diego to LAX.

Another friend has suggested doing a one way rental car but if I am by myself then I cannot use the HOV lanes.
