Why do I have 2 charges from Uber?

Why do I have two charges for the same trip? This can happen if you change your destination while you are on your trip, which may cause the final fare to be higher than the initial authorization amount. If a second authorization hold for the final full amount is unsuccessful, your bill may be split into two receipts.
