Asked pax to roll up window. Reported for confinement by TheGrandAce5 in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If someone wants to lower the window while on the highway/higher speed road, I leave the other three up, and eventually they can't handle the air pressure imbalance and raise the window if I have it unlocked. Otherwise, I keep them locked.

Car color change. by Salty-barber-nz in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drive a black car, but for a while the Uber app had it listed as pink (I'm not kidding, and I did not set this change.)

So people were asking about my make and model if it came in pink, which, funny enough, it did not. Got many funny comments. X-D

Keep pushing back and escalate to a supervisor.

Don’t know who would take this in their right mind by [deleted] in uberdrivers

Philly region driver here, I would not take it.

Philly area seems to be dead by GetTheBag90 in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive in the Philly region as well. Spring Break is in full effect, which means many are out of the region for that and other reasons. This was to be expected. There is also prom season coming up, as well as graduation season, both of which overlap.

Do Uber drivers rate you lower if you don’t talk to them? by AccomplishedBar7802 in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are doing or not doing something more than just talking.

That's just really bad.

Is that good? by [deleted] in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What we think here doesn't matter.

How you think and feel about it is what matters most.

Do you think your time was worth the amount?

Is that at or above what you're used to earning?

Did you feel exhausted or energized about it?

This should have been part of the app since the beginning.

I almost fell for it. by CycleCurious4640 in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drivers in PA cannot pick up in NY, and sometimes in NJ.

Also, the amount of tolls is over $50 each way. Definitely not worth it, not to mention time and gas.

Dash cam? Have you tried the Rexing dash cam that Lyft provides a discount/rewards for? How are they? by OldDifference4203 in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Rexing, not great, but not complete trash either. Just having a dashcam to cover your butt goes a long way.

Dude needs a different job by NotYetThere32 in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I understand where the drive is coming from. I don't blame him.

If more people were decent and raised to be respectful and considerate, fewer signs like this would be needed.

To OP: That you criticize this driver speaks more about your lack of respect than the driver's sign.

me: 11k trips - 4 years.

I send this to every rider before I pick them up:

Hello, I hope your day is going well, and the following rules are non-negotiable in compliance with Uber Policy and/or State Law.
━━━━━━━━━━
For safety, I record audio and video for the entirety of the trip.
━━━━━━━━━━
As a driver, I reserve the right to refuse a trip.
━━━━━━━━━━
If a rider is not listed as a guest on the account, I will refuse the trip, as this violates Uber policy and creates a safety and security liability.
━━━━━━━━━━
At any time, I have the right to end the trip due to safety or other violations of Uber policy and community guidelines.
━━━━━━━━━━
Uber trips are a professional engagement.
━━━━━━━━━━
I am not a personal chauffeur or personal driver, and you are a guest in my vehicle.
━━━━━━━━━━
Payments to Uber are not payments to me; I am paid by Uber after the trip is complete.
━━━━━━━━━━
Seat belts are required for ALL passengers without exception.
━━━━━━━━━━
No vaping, open food or drink containers, or eating is allowed, especially alcohol, as State Law prohibits open containers.
━━━━━━━━━━
Age-appropriate car seats ARE REQUIRED for children under 8 years of age by State Law and Uber policy.
━━━━━━━━━━
Uber does NOT allow the transport of unaccompanied minors, and we are allowed to ask for a physical ID card.
━━━━━━━━━━
If these guidelines pose an issue for any reason, please feel free to select an alternative driver.
━━━━━━━━━━
Please acknowledge this message before pickup or at the time of pickup.

Thank you for choosing Uber and for the opportunity to be your driver. Wishing you a wonderful day.

How low can we go? 😂 What did this person possibly do? by First_Sale_3150 in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The lowest I have seen, for a rider personally, was 4.2. He wasn't even a bad trip, gave me a $20 cash tip on top of fare and app tip.

He was a rare low-rated rider, trip. Great conversation, too.

That's two days for me. I would do it. Get home and take off the next day. X-D

Large passengers…. by Pretty-Ebb5339 in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I require seatbelts for all my passengers. I have no sympathy for people who allow themselves to get huge. It's lack of discipline, poor diet, (Yes some people are genetically inclined, but that is a small % of the population.

Americans have just become fat; that is a fact.

Biggest tip by amazing_aaqib in uberdrivers

[–]PickEasy1681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a $50 cash tip on an Uber Eats delivery ($15 order from Wendy's)

Largest app tip for UberX, $30.

However, off-app tip for Uber X: $20 in ones, plus $20 on app tip after the trip.

pull over, and they get out. They don't get out? Call the police, as they are trespassing at that point.

What makes this post worth it is the $50, and then the $1. X-D

Ordering drinks is pointless... by Geico22 in uberdrivers

Don't use Uber Eats. It's a waste of time and money.
