  • Received it in the mail a few days ago. It must have took them months to come up with this one. Probably paid someone big bucks to design it:) The "Booking Fee" Uber takes out of drivers fare probably paid for it. I got one sticker even though I have 2 cars on platform. Last time I looked had a front and back windshield on both vehicles. Wonder if we need to pay for more. I'll check it out to see if they will send more.  They used to send 2. If I am not mistaken you need one in front and one in back if you go to Philly airport or you get a fine( not sure if it's 1 or 2). Anyone from Philly have the correct info?

     5 years ago in  What do you all think of the new Uber logo?

    I received my new sticker a few days ago. Plain old "Uber" maybe 4"/5" high. Sticker not stickers:) Only sent 1 sticker even though I have 2 cars on platform and front & back windshield. Sorry for bad pic but my phone crashed using my sons (not used to it, obviously not very good with it):). Can't wait to get mine back although T Mobile's Insurance Co. is absolutely awful.

     5 years ago in  What's a typical passenger rating for Uber? Is 4.50 good?

    Don't slam a drivers door. Apparently that makes them rate you under 5 stars. Makes no sense. How am I supposed to know how hard or soft to push a door of a car Ive never been in. Do you take short rides? Heard that annoys drivers although I can understand why on that one. 


  • For obvious reasons Javier X. Someone just posed a questions to get some feedback. Why be a smartass? At least there are people out there willing to help others if needed. 


  • In most cases it's a nose spray.  Very easy to administer it.  There is the good samaritan law. Basically you are granted immunity if you voluntarily try to help someone and fail to do it properly, you break a rib, person dies anyway ex. CPR.  In most states (40 last I heard) Narcan falls under the good Samaritan law. If Narcan is administered to someone who does not have opioids in their system it doesn't harm them. Narcan simply can reverse the overdose.  Person could start breathing again and blood pressure rises.  It pushes the receptors out of the brain. Completely understand why you wouldnt want to take a chance. Just informing you or anyone else that may be interested or not know what Narcan is. It is fairly easy to adminster and you cant be sued under good samaritan laws. I personally would be afraid to use it as I have no training. I  have mixed feelings on the whole Narcan thing as there are many other drugs out there that people cannot afford but no one is helping them. Sime addicts are Narcaned multiple times and still.continue to use. I also understand the other side of it also. I do agree with momof4 though in the fact that if I could help someone rather than watch them die I probably would do what I could to help. Very understandable why people choose not to though.

    I wish some city would do it and actually get all the drivers to stop driving for the day. New Years Eve would be an awesome time. Most difficult would be if everyone didn't drive you turn app on and see city surged $40/$50. Most drivers wouldn't pass that up and out they would go. On nights that I don't drive I'll turn app on just to see what's going on. Of course I get pissed because good surges are out there. I now try not to even look on my nights off.


  • Mom of 4 would love to hear more stories. You haven't posted one in awhile please post some more. Looking forward to hearing more.
