Drivers get vetted and you always have a few that sneak thru the system. Now, let's flip the coin, could you imagine the amount of convicted felons that ride in your private car because they don't get vetted?

Uber recruiter: "Look. It's easy. You just sit there and that's it. It literally drives itself!"
