A passenger once had a driver who wouldn't stop talking on his phone while driving. Not only was it distracting, but it was also against the rules. The passenger felt very unsafe throughout the journey.
Sure. There was a time when an Uber driver was speeding dangerously. The passenger was terrified as the driver was weaving in and out of traffic at high speeds. It was a miracle they didn't get into an accident.
Sure. A common horror story is customers giving the wrong address. The driver goes to the location only to find out it's wrong. Then they have to contact the customer and sometimes the customer doesn't answer. So they waste a lot of time and fuel.
One horror story could be a driver getting lost constantly and making the passenger late for an important event like a job interview. The passenger was relying on the driver's GPS but it seemed the driver was not familiar with the area at all.
There was an uber driver who had a group of college students in his car. They started singing really loudly and off - key to a popular song. Instead of getting annoyed, the driver joined in and they all had a great time. It made for a really funny and memorable ride.
Sure. One success story is about a driver named John. He started driving for Uber to earn some extra money on the side. But with his friendly attitude and knowledge of the city, he got great ratings. Soon, he was able to quit his part - time job and focus solely on Uber driving, making a good living.
I once had an Uber driver who was super into fitness. He had dumbbells in the car and was doing bicep curls at every red light. He said it was his way of making the most of his time.
Sure. A delivery driver had to deliver to an apartment building where the elevator was broken. He had to carry a really heavy package up several flights of stairs. On the way, he tripped and the package tumbled down the stairs, causing some damage to the items inside. He then had to deal with an angry customer who blamed him for the mishap.
There's the story of a truck driver who was on a long - haul journey. He stopped at a motel for the night. When he woke up in the middle of the night, he saw a face at the window. He was frozen in fear. When he finally got the courage to look again, the face was gone. But he couldn't sleep for the rest of the night and left the motel as soon as it was light. He later found out that the motel had a reputation for being haunted.
Sure. One story I heard was about a gay Uber driver who decorated his car with rainbow flags. Passengers would often start conversations about LGBTQ+ rights because of it, and he would share his own experiences growing up as a gay man. It was his way of spreading awareness and pride.
I've heard of a driver who was delivering to a house where the customer's dog was loose and very aggressive. As the driver approached the door, the dog started barking and lunging at them. The driver was terrified and didn't know what to do. In some cases, drivers have also had to deal with food getting spilled in their cars during transit due to bad roads or sudden stops, which then means they have to clean up the mess and might get a bad rating for a late delivery.
One success story is about a driver named John. He started driving for Uber to earn some extra income. He was very friendly and always provided excellent service. His car was always clean and he knew all the shortcuts in the city. Soon, he got high ratings from passengers. This led to more ride requests. Eventually, he was able to quit his part - time job and rely solely on his Uber earnings.
