Does anything actually warn you faster when a rideshare driver is about to cancel, not after you're already standing outside?

Driver accepted, was four minutes out, then texted that he got spooked by something and cancelled with no rebooking offer. Rebooked myself and ended up fifteen minutes late to a thing I cannot be late to. App just said "driver cancelled" like that explains anything to the person standing on a curb.

Is there a service that auto dispatches a backup if the first one bails within some window, or do people just build in a buffer and hope for the best? What would you do?

  2. Same thing happened at an airport once. No good fix. Just padding time is the move.
