Uber ride was $100
Driver was going to make $50
I cancelled the ride and handed the driver a crisp $40 bill
“Start driving or I report you to uber for violating the terms of service by taking cash from customers”
We arrived in record time
I saved $60
Best of all, the driver couldn’t review me in the app since the ride was cancelled
Unfortunately I left my wallet in his car
But the lesson still stands
Uber has been ordered to pay $40 million to the family of a 23-year-old woman who was struck and killed after her rideshare driver ordered her out of his car on the side of a California freeway.
An arbitrator found the driver "needlessly placed" Emily Normandin-Parker and her friend in danger, saying he showed "far more worry for his new car than he did for his passengers."
Uber says its thoughts remain with the family and that it has continued strengthening its safety policies.
