   3 years ago in  What to do with a crying passenger?

  This happens more than people (non-drivers) think, I bet. At least once a month.

  You learn so much as a driver. Everyone has his or her own story. It makes me ponder about the complex world we live in.

   4 years ago in  Uber Drivers: How Far Will You Drive To Pick-Up A Fare Not Knowing Their Destination?

  Putting the price aside for a minute, the reality is that riders won’t be happy that you are going against the expectation set by the app. There will be many unhappy passengers. That’s reality.
  I see your point though. If you keep doing this, the word will eventually get back to Uber and if they lose ridership as a result, it’s in them and their pricing.
  
  How has the response been?

   4 years ago in  What do drivers do if the passenger falls asleep in the backseat or passes out from being drunk? While driving must be okay, but what about once you get to the destination?

  ...and?!! 

  I supposed your liability would be limited as you successfully completed the ride and safely took the passenger to the designated destination.
  Maybe a courtesy call to the police, and leave an FYI?

   5 years ago in  I feel honored, Lyft communications directors response to me is below!

  I see what Lyft is trying to say, but their stance is heavily arguable. They make it sound pretty but st the end of the day, they are trying to play with the supply and demand to their advantage. They’re bullying the drivers and messing with free market.

  Right. We have always know this but Uber kept claiming they’re not. (In order to skirt the laws and regulations.) 

  And now all the taxi companies are gone and we have done a full circle.

  We will just end up back being taxi drivers. Uber exploded and now it'll implode back to just a regular taxi company, where the drivers are dedicated full-time professionals.

  The concept of rideshare and people driving in their spare time... whatever happened to that?

   5 years ago in  Unbelievable! My Uber rider thought we were still not able to accept tips. WTH?

  I totally mistyped my previous message.  What I meant to type was:

  Maybe the riders don't know that drivers know that they tipped. That's the only explanation this dude never tipped even after some conversations.

  I had a repeater I drove over 20 times and not once he tipped. I started to mention about tipping but he never did. 

  You know what’s funny?  I think the riders don’t know whether they’ve tipped or not. Maybe that’s the problem?

   5 years ago in  Employee vs. Contractor. Has everyone considered the downside of becoming an Uber employee?

  I agree!! 

  The government's goal is to make driving a full time job, like it was for taxis before.  Why the heck would we want to go back to that?  I guess it's natural that the taxi market fell apart?

  It's a big full circle. We are about to REVERT all the great things Uber has done .  I cannot believe California's stance is that we go back to the original crappy taxi system.

  I'd love to roll as never picking up underage passengers EVER, but I highly suspect I have been driving them. If they have an Uber account, they are supposed to be 18. None of my business...right?
