I've had my share of dark alley drug deals done and a lot of call girls traveling between appointments. All of the above are the best tippers, cash only. 😆
How many drug deals were done by a passenger in your car? How many call girls have you transported between appointments?

How many? Â Like all the time.Â
Around where I live, it’s pretty obvious with the way they dress. Basically they look like strippers.Â
I assume there are classier ones that add to the count but I just can’t identify them.Â
Full transparency, there’s a strip bar in the next town over and I do get calls from there quite often. People from downtown Indy come and they usually need a ride back. So I prey on those people super late nights. In that mix, I have these girls utilizing our service pretty much nightly.Â
Strippers always tip, dealers always tip, Uber X pax - 2 out of 10 😂Â
I had one attempted drug deal, but when they were at their quick stop, I quickly ended the ride and bolted. Â
I've had MANY hookers over the years, though. Â They've never caused problems, and they almost always tip. Â (Of all the hooker runs I've done over the years, 100% of them were using Lyft)Â Â
Interesting that they use Lyft, wonder why? I see that you run a tight ship by keeping stats. 😆
Yup. Cash only. I keep my mouth shut and be discrete about it, and they give me money. Simple as that. Don't ask questions.
All depends on what time you work. If you work late during the wee hours, you are bound to see a few working girls leverage our services. I heard that they utilize taxis so they can hide their tracks (no gps or email evidence), but I later found out they use plenty of Uber.Â
It doesn’t even matter which night of the week.  I regularly see them during certain hours. Let’s say at least twice a week when I drove those hours.
I assume I drive them during the day, but it’s 1000x times easier to identify them at night. Nice looking and freshly dolled up girls traveling alone to random locations at 1am.Â
What happens if you are pulled over and your pax has drugs, and the cops search the car. Does anyone know? Has this happened to anyone?
Hasn't happened yet to me, I have visions of getting busted by vice. Since it is your car and deal is being done by someone sitting in it, you'll probably be an accessory until you can explain yourself and Uber will deactivate you.Â
