Ontopic Where do you sit when you ride share (Uber, Lyft, Etc)

[Peppers]

Trunk.

 

[HipHugHer]

Backseat. Behind the driver. With my concealed carry permit prominently displayed. And one hand hidden inside my jacket at all times.

Back seat, always, rolling in cab front seats is not cool, here.

Even with others in the car or just alone?

UBER and Chicago cabs were trying to screw my daughter & me for a ride last Sunday night. Concert ended. 11:45pm. Needed a $15 lift to Union Station & they were pulling up to everyone, 'you going to union station? $30!' We walked 4 blocks (away from bad traffic) toward union station & on our 4th 'negotiation' I asked the driver 'union station. How much?' & he looks at me confused and says, 'Eight or Nine bucks?' So we got in. Regular fare.

I drove Uber for a bit. I never had someone sit up front, and I wouldn't want someone to sit up front.

I told @Mrs. Valve she should be an Uber driver on the side until the Metro safety surge is done.

Or just slugline for cash.

yeah I got hella fucked over by a Chicago cab, dude said the card reader worked when I got in, but then when it was time to pay was like lolno cash only and told me how much he expected with tip, not how much the ride actually was, and ended up with more because he "couldn't" make change

 

[my little brony]

That's why uber is better than cabs. Pay ahead of time, no need to carry cash

Thats when you note his license number and report his ass.

In Chicago, there's no 'business as usual' department.

yep, what a fuckin asshole. If i had nowhere to go in a hurry, id involve the police in that one. Basically extortion.

"You said credit card ok. Sorry, I don't carry cash, bye"

 

[gee]

Public transit FTW.

This does actually work, btw. Got a full refund from a bs cab ride where the driver refused to take our requested route and it ended up doubling our fare.
