Or move this sleeper sofa...

Thank you. This is exactly right.
Clickbait. I can tell when someone is a bad rider when they just plain old suck too. 😂
Interesting question, sorry I don't know the answer but I would think it would be detailed in their insurance policy?

Wow, did you get the contact info of your pool pax? I am curious if they have contacted Uber and if so if they have had more luck? Did you contact police?

Oh its beyond a minimum wage gig, it is completely laughable
Sweet, thanks, Ill go order mine now
I just don't get where they get their data from. What is the fine print? Like how do they get these numbers?!?!
I have, don't waste your time.
No point in aiding in theft for probably a $10 ride, you would be stupid to even consider this!
