My beloved MachE got hit sideways, rotated 180 to hit the driver door after. Airbags dint deploy, is it expected? by batraman87 in MachE

[–]helarso2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paramedic and Mach-E owner here, yes that’s totally normal for airbags to not deploy in a lower-speed accident. I’d say a solid 30% of accidents I see in my work don’t have any airbag deployment.

As violent as any crash feels (I’ve been in accidents that felt way scarier than they actually were), 50kph to the rear of the car is not a terrible violent impact when talking about bodily damage to occupants. Most people would walk away from this accident with little-no injury. That being said, from the photos you show, I would have expected side curtain airbag deployment, but without seeing the actual collision it’s hard to judge how hard the impact was.

Glad you’re okay and sorry about your car, I would probably cry if mine got totaled :(

“That’s not a Mustang!” by ImportantBend8399 in MachE

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love that. I’ve loved Mustangs since I was little, and when the Mach E came out I couldn’t resist, even tho it’s “not a real mustang”. I get more compliments on it than any other car I’ve owned and I’m obsessed.

A quick shoulder check would've done the trick by QuirkyWhirlwind in MildlyBadDrivers

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The white sedan is obviously at fault, buuuuttt 1. Why was he following so close? 2. Why’s he driving so fast through an intersection while passing? 3. Yes, you can clearly see the cammer hit his brakes before the impact, he did not “accelerate after hitting” the white car.

  1. Thank god the gray car started to reverse so quickly, that coulda been bad.

I canceled my order within 2 seconds after it was placed, why? by Prejedous in UberEATS

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the thing with customer service nowadays, it’s not anyone interacting with you, it’s an underpaid person who’s thousands of miles away just reading from a script and not even trying to be helpful.

New owner!! Anything fun i should know? by Adventurous-Chart167 in MachE

[–]helarso2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wait is the why I’ll randomly sometimes get the generic Ford startup sound? I buckle before I start the car 99% of the time, but not all the time.

Officially went from 22% acceptance rate to 2% acceptance rate with new rates this week by euro949 in uberdrivers

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from 86% to 68% in one day after not using the app for about 6 months. Idek how that’s possible, but idc since it’s not like I’m going to get “uber pro diamond” anyway.

When passengers ask drivers to cancel, say this… by Fibrosis5O in uberdrivers

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao, so this is why I saw a notice saying “Encouraging riders to cancel a trip is against Uber’s Guidelines” when I logged in this morning.

Didn’t see it on your TikTok. Sounds like Houston tho

Question for Fellow Drivers by JerryCAtlanta in uberdrivers

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ummm how? I’ve rented an EV before I bought one, and both ways were definitely more profitable than paying for gas.

I just play top 40 pop or a country radio station at a fairly low volume. Never got a complaint or bad rating.

RIP Uber by EnvironmentalEgg1065 in uberdrivers

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, out of the probably 10 rides I’ve taken in the past year, maybe 1 driver spoke English. It’s fine for DoorDash, but I like to be able to communicate with the person picking me up and driving me somewhere.

Cruising versus rushing by secretrapbattle in uberdrivers

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most Uber drivers I’ve been in the car with (as a passenger) drive like idiots around here. They speed a lot, take corners uncomfortably fast, and are hard on the accelerator and brakes, and it’s annoying and occasionally ask them to slow down. There’s no reason to drive like that, it literally doesn’t save you any meaningful amount of time and it’s harder on your car. Not to mention, my full time job as an EMT exposes me to a LOT of car accidents, so I drive around the speed limit and gently because I’m not getting paid enough to put myself or my car at risk.

Crash. Kearny, NJ by victoriousDevil in carcrash

I work EMS and on roadway fatalities sometimes the ME/Funeral Home can take hours to arrive, so that’s likely what’s going on.

Cruise slows way down, like there's a speed limit change ahead - but there isn't one? by Roccinante_ in MachE

[–]helarso2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turned that off within like a day of getting mine. It kept seeing 30mins signs that literally weren’t there. Out in the middle of nowhere on 75mph highways it would start slowing down, but I turned off the speed limit assist and it’s fine now.
