Depending on the day of the week, more than likely, yes; however, as drivers set their own schedule, there is no guarantee. I just about ONLY drive in the wee hours, and until the bar drivers go home (around 3 AM), it is easy to get an uber driver. After that time it is touch and go.

Yes! However, I would suggest calling the driver and asking first. I would also recommend a nice tip. A driver's concern with such a long drive is that the passenger will not tip, typical of Uber riders, and he will have to return home with no fare/compensation for the 2 hour trip back.

How much should you tip Uber drivers? Similar to tipping for other services, like getting a massage or going to the nail salon, the rule of thumb is to tip 20%, says Sokolosky. So if your ride costs $30—an average cost for a moderate trip in most cities—then you'll tip $6, for a total of $36.
