  I think you guys are missing the point.  You use this when there is a creeper driver or whenever you feel unsafe..  You don't have to use it all the time.

   5 years ago in  As a driver, have you kicked out a passenger? Ended a ride early mid-trip?

  You agreed to drive the man to his house.  You cancelling the ride is unprofessional.  He was holding up his side of the bargain by incurring significant fees every minute, and you just ditched him.

   6 years ago in  Do you let your teens use Uber?

  Are you joking?  Every teenager I know uses Uber.  and it's parents' endorsed.  For one, it's crazy convenient and it's cheap. For two, teenagers use taxis and parents trusted taxis for years.  They just shfited over to Uber.

  Safety?  Yeah, their rides are tracked by GPS and all the cc transactions are in place.  Way safer than taxis which they already took. Plus, these aren't toddlers here.

  If you are talking about the Strip, I have taken Uber and Lyft at all times of the day, and deep into the late nights, and I have never experienced a surge.

  Maybe, just maybe when there's a concert or something, perhaps there are surges?

   6 years ago in  Lots of Driver Scams - Watch out, passengers!

  PHANTOM MESS?  Put a fake barf on the seat, take a pic, and collect that cleaning fees?  That's pretty evil.  I mean...what a messy fight.  It must be a mud slinging match every time.  every passenger would dispute this.  These are drivers are banking on it being his word against mine, but...dude.  This is just a way to get yourself banned from Uber pretty fast.

   6 years ago in  Algorithm of Uber vs Grab

  I think Grab is the de facto rideshare there. One of my friends told me Grab is bigger than Uber.  

  Uber to those locals is like, "this app that no one uses from a foreign land."  It's funny because us Americans think Uber is the boss, but the world is a big place.

   5 years ago in  What is "Rider Fees"? How come no one can tell me what it is?

  or just make it so it's one time fee and no distance or duration.  The rest the driver gets t keep.

  Call it a usage fee of the app.  It doesn't require Uber to do anymore work. It's an introduction fee.  an App usage fee.
