  Shouldn't I make my driver cancel so I am not charged the cancellation fees? I feel like the drivers always ask me to cancel when he doesn't want to take me.

  Why does this happen?  I was taking an Uber from Miami airport, and UberBlack responded.  He was parked outside of …

  You should start UberNurse. OnDemand nurse service, for at-home care, administering medications and bringing prescriptions.

  I think a lot of people would take advantage of it. Getting antibiotics at a doctor’s office takes a visit, waiting, and taking half a day off work. It is very unproductive.

  Ford Fusion does look like Aston Martin. Love it. 

  Though I am sure it doesn't drive like one.

   5 years ago in  Can I request a female Uber driver? (I'm female and would feel more safe)

  So apparently, you don't have to be a woman to be a driver for Safr.  You don't have to be a women to be a rider either.  I think someone else mentioned how they cannot only accept women due to legal reasons, and I wonder if that's the case.

  I do see that you can *request* whichever gender you prefer.  That all sounds nice, but you are right.  Men with bad intentions can request women drivers, which is a problem.

  Though, I am not sure if I am reading this correctly.  What do you think?

  "If you already earn money as a driver, it’s a no brainer! We pay more. If you have never driven, now is your chance. Safr is redefining ridesharing for women so you can have peace of mind participating in the sharing economy. Safr gives you the option to select which gender you feel most comfortable riding with and Safr riders are like-minded in desiring a safe rideshare experience for all women. Let’s hit the road and make a difference." https://www.gosafr.com/drivers/

  Yeah, I remember them. I think they are still operating. I saw them on my news feed that they are targeting Orlando next. 

  I also read up on how they aren't all female drivers and aren't for only female riders. They had to mix it up. Maybe for legal reasons. (Can't discriminate)

  Yeah, it seems to be a "thing".  Luckily, this has only happened to me.  There are other "scams" on this site about how 

  Lots here. https://ride.guru/lounge/f/scams

  See, I try to seek for good in people.  Now I am picturing my driver feverishly trying to fix his car in the scorching 3PM heat of Miami, as his smartphone continues to buzz with Uber ride requests.  I feel horrible now.

  I also do wonder if he at some point make it to the terminal, because the receipt looks like he did end up showing up. I have no idea when though.  The last time I spoke to him on the phone, he still hadn't moved his car and I was half way to my destination.

  Yes, I ordered an Uber Black, maybe even UberSUV? I travel in style  j/k  

  I attached my receipt below for more clues, but you are righ that it maybe the airport queue thing? How long do drivers wait in those?  

  ...but that means he did actually have car trouble?  I guess I still don't see the reason he didn't want the ride. I mentioned elsewhere that it was a trip to Miami Beach, like a $50-60 ride.

  I can't remember him asking.  Maybe he did.  It's overall weird.  I was going to Miami Beach, which is like a $50 ride.

  You guys me worried, so I just checked.  It doesn't say cancelled or anything.. It just says, $0.00.  Is that weird?  Did he actually come to the location and started and ended the ride?

  It was from MIA to Miami Beach on UberBlack.  So that's like a $50 trip.  It was in middle of a day and there were no traffic.  Maybe his car did break down...
