   6 years ago in  As Uber and Lyft drivers, what are your pet peeves about your passengers, and what do you do about them?

  Yeah, that's a nasty habit.  You can smoke all you want in your own time and in your own house.  Don't bring that crap in my cabin.

  Your rights end where the rights of others begin.

   6 years ago in  Can I drive a sports car like a Corvette as an Uber?

  No, you don't have enough seatbelts.  

  They have had UberSUPERCARS for special events as promotions.  If you want to see, go google it.

  I saw someon else mention UberLUX, which is suppsed to be the most luxurious and high-end vehicles.  I have included examples below.  However, the vehicle requirements see to be for four-door cars with the capacity to carry at least four passengers.  So, seeing that Corvette only comes with 2-doors, the answer is a solid NO.

  UberLUX Examples

  • Porsche Cayenne
  • Mercedes Benz GL/E/S/M Class
  • Audi A6/A7/A8
  • Jaguar XJ
  • Lexus LS/GS/GX/RX
  • Range Rover
  • Tesla Model S
  • 7-Series BMW
  • Porsche Panamera
  • Infiniti XF
  • Audi Q5/Q7/S7/S8
  • Maserati Ghibli
  • All 4-door Bentley's
  • All 4-door Rolls Royce's

   6 years ago in  What is a Maestro app? I am a new driver and I was told to check it out. Not really finding it.

  Yuck, really? I didn't know it was just for Android.  What are they doing.

  I continue to hear about how buggy they are. 

  In terms of the rumor mill, they have been in hot waters with Uber and Lyft.  They are making enemies with those big companies and I heard there's a feud brewing.  Someone told me mid-2017 that they won't be around much longer, but I guess they are still chugging along.

   6 years ago in  What's with passengers asking drivers to cancel? Are they being coached to do that recently?

  I am not aware of this.  So someone calls you and tells you to cancel?

  I don't want my Cancellation Rate to go up...

  They must be looking for ways to not pay the cancellation fee.

   6 years ago in  Uber's app is kicking off Transgender drivers.

  I have never gotten one of these verification requests.  It's been at least 6 months since I started driving.  Should I be worried.  How often are you supposed to get these.

   6 years ago in  How far are Uber and Lyft drivers willing to take you?

  Depends no where you want to go. If it's to a location where I won't be able to pick up another customer (say because that is outside of my home region), it becomes very unattractive all of a sudden. 

  They call that the "dead leg."

   6 years ago in  Is it true that Lyft passengers tip more than Uber passengers? Why is that? Both app offer tip options, right?

  Is that better than the stat this guy left on this:

  https://ride.guru/lounge/p/uber-drivers-made-600-million-in-tips-this-year#comment-4790

  His math says 1.62% ends up as a tip, and $0.15 each ride.  on Uber.

   6 years ago in  Survey! Drivers, please help us to uncover the truth about rideshare driver pay.

  I filled it out but I feel like I provided junk data, because I am part-time and I didn't work last week.  I had to put $0.00 and 0 hours worked.  I hope it won't skew the data.

   6 years ago in  What do you do if a passenger pulls a weapon on you while driving an Uber?

  Silently point at the webcam.  Maybe mention it's connected to the cloud server, so he'll get caught no matter what he does.  Just remind him.

  For extra points, say, "your mom will be disappointed when she hears of this"

   6 years ago in  Do Lyft AMP Light (or Uber Beacon) really get you more tips from passengers?

  How could it possibly increase tipping? If the driver is doing his job, driving safely, being polite, courteous and helpful that will result in the passengers tipping.

  Not a fancy light on the dash.  Don't get me wrong.  I think it's a nice addition.  I just think it's wrong to sell it like it'll increase tips.

   6 years ago in  If drivers are really losing money with Uber then why do you keep driving for Uber?

  This is the problem.  Uber goes great lengths to hide the fact that being a driver really beats up on your car.  This isn't some gig you can do with only the upsides.  The problem is that it's very hard to calculate these costs of car maintenance, so many don't do it and Uber gets the benefit of the doubt that being a driver is a lucrative business.

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

  I think it's a natural outcome.  Consumers do tend to "act out" on paid service providers and there are lots more frustrations on the provide side.(i.e. drivers)

  Drivers deal with people who act like they own the car, just because they pay.  They can puke, be obnoxious, loud, etc. etc. etc.  It's limitless number of crap they can do.

  Drivers?  As long as they drive and be courteous, they should theroetically get a 5, right?

   6 years ago in  Have you ever ratted out a rider to Uber for smelling like weed?

  No, brah.  The weed smokers are the most gentle mellow people.  When have you heard some smoked up dude get into a fight or rob a convenience store.  It's the drunks you have to worry about.

   6 years ago in  What are ways Uber drivers make money besides driving?

  Can't you just stock it with items bought at Costco?  Make everything one dollar, and you don't need some fancy app or payment method.

  ...or you can set up Square to take credit cards.

  I haven't looked into CarGo, but I am sure they take a pretty penny.  The problem about their business is that it's easy to copy and easy to undercut.

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

  Thanks for sharing. That's some crappy experience.  I have had others cancel mid-trip as well.  Why do they all claim it was by accident?

  One guy had a (potentially) credible answer.  It was, "My friend call this Uber and she must have cancelled it?"  I called BS, but later I found out this happens often when one leader of a pack tries to call multiple rides.  Some people assume since the group is on a car, they are good.  so they cancel and call another for the second group.

  Can I ask whether they left bad reviews?  I also am curious if Uber would be considerate enough to take those off of your records.  They should.

  Uber's new recruiting slogan. "Do what you love and you'll never work another day in your life. We pay $4.00/hour while you enjoy life."

  Well, I am part time, so I have a full time as a software engineer "on the side."

  Do other drivers mind that?  I see so many fulltime drivers on this site.  so intense.  I just go out like 5 hours on the weekends so I can support my binging habits.
