You (get) different answers if you ask people from different countries," Could you tell me the way to the post office?"
In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to (travel),"Go straight down to the corner, turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is (cross) from the bus stop.
In the Midwest of America, there are no towns buildings within miles. So instead of landmarks, people tell you directions and distance. In Kansas, example, people will say, "Go north two miles, turn east and then go another mile."

Over the past ten days, many people in China, especially those in big cities including Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, have been complaining that it takes over 30 minutes to get a car through Didi Chuxing.
A media survey of 200 people from 22 cities shows that 36% of people say they've been forced to wait an additional 10 to 30 minutes before a driver accepts their orders. Why is it difficult to call a car?
Luo Wen, Senior Product Director of Didi Chuxing, said the reason is an unbalanced relationship between demand and supply. With the extra allowance decreased, some drivers escaped. Luo also said the number of customers has been" increasing since January 13th when the" Chunyun" started, while the number of drivers has dropped, with many of them already heading home for the Lunar New Year holiday.
Another reason behind the supply shortage is the government s new rule that requires drivers to be locally-registered citizens, which makes it impossible for migrants to serve as Didi drivers.
On top of the lack of supply, the root cause is the way orders are handed out to drivers on the platform. Because drivers are fully aware
That their customers will have to tip them, during peak hours, drivers appear to be ignoring passengers' requests until the value of the tip meets their demands. Didi has confirmed the higher tips they pay, the more likely customers will get a taxi.
