   5 years ago in  As a driver, what are some annoying things passengers do to you?

  haha great list so far!! I think you have pretty much covered all the main ones. I would add being late for pickup. It is amazing how many passengers are not ready when I arrive, you literally have an app telling you exactly when I will arrive!! How hard could it be to get your butt outside?!

   5 years ago in  Would you give a minor a ride if you saw they were being abused?

  I think in some of these situations I would call the police. I wouldn't want to risk getting in trouble or in the middle of anything but I would want to verfiy that the child was ok.

   5 years ago in  Women knowingly get in wrong Uber and are then surprised when the driver is sketchy.

  I think the OP was referring to this specific article which involved only women but you are right. It is more prevalent among male passengers but sadly they do not end up in danger as frequently as women so it is not reported.

  I also love that lysol spray, makes things so easy but sometimes I wonder how well it actually works...

  Do you think lysol wipes are more effective than the spray? Just so much easier to spray and go! 

  and I am super impressed with how often you vacuum your car, I hate getting out my little vacuum and doing this!! Do you have a vacuum you love?

   5 years ago in  With the impending changes, will YOU continue to driver for Uber/Lyft?

  Yep, I agree with Momof4. I take Uber day by day, if it even gets terribly out of hand, then sure I'll look for making extra income elsewhere.

   5 years ago in  If you could start the process of becoming a driver again what would you do differently?

  I would not have stressed about providing snacks and waters and making everything perfect. I realized after a while that all that stuff really doesn't matter. I wish I hadn't wasted my time on it all in the beginning.

  I would keep my app on for a week and see just how many pings I get between 10-2. If it is very few then I would just decide to do something else with that time. Go home, sleep, relax, do chores, etc. If there is still an ok number of pings, enough to make it worth it then I would probably sit in the most high traffic area and wait!

  I think its unprofessional. I always ask Pax what they would like to listen to. If they request something, they get it. If they don't care, I put on news or one of those pop stations.

  This would be really awesome if they followed through. I wish I could get 10k but I am at least happy some of the drivers are getting a piece of the pie!
