Montgomery riders rely on Uber and Lyft, both widely available downtown and near Maxwell AFB, stick to these two apps for the largest driver pool and in-app safety features.
For solo or late-night rides, Montgomery Police recommend requesting pickups inside well-lit venues like the Renaissance Hotel lobby or the downtown library entrance rather than curbside.
Common Scams to Avoid
Drivers taking indirect routes through downtown to inflate the fare, on trips to or from Maxwell Air Force Base. Ask to use the meter and request the most direct route using major streets like I-65 or I-85.
Taxis at the Riverfront area claiming the meter is broken and demanding flat rates that exceed normal fares. Insist on using the meter or find another taxi. Legitimate operators will comply.
