From bringing a friend along for a ride to stocking up on supplies for their riders, some Uber drivers like to leave a lasting memory. Here are a few samples of times where Uber drivers surprised their clients!
Service Pet?
Uber does have a service where you share a ride with other riders. And sometimes that can be quite fun as you get to meet someone new. But sometimes, the rider may not even be human… After all, who doesn’t want to pet a puppy for a few minutes?
Unique Décor
There are many ways that Uber drivers try to get those five-star ratings. Some drivers try to do it with their personality and by offering little extras like water and such. But other drivers surprised their riders by decorating their cars.
This is especially great around holidays, and so when this rider got into the car, and their driver had decked it out for Halloween, they were especially happy. Wouldn’t you be as well?
Wrong-Way
Driving for Uber is a good way to make a little money, whether it be a side hustle or your main gig. So sometimes, when a person gets to a new city, it seems like it might be a great option for them. Considering that they’re a good driver and know the area well.
Otherwise, their riders might be surprised like this rider was when her Uber driver tried to drive down railroad tracks. That would definitely affect the driver’s rating.
A Day in the Life
The last thing you want to do when you are in an Uber is leave something behind, especially if that’s something in your purse or briefcase. If this happens to you, all you can do is hope and pray that you can get your property back.
This woman was surprised when she did get her purse back as the camera roll was filled with pictures of her purse and its adventure that day.
For Your Information
Have you ever climbed into an Uber and felt that the driver was simply ignoring you? For some, this is heaven, and for others, this could be pretty annoying. As a precautionary measure so that there were no surprises with his fares, this driver left a note.
Seeing that this driver was deaf, he just wanted his passengers to know that they could feel free to blast their music or have any type of conversation they could possibly want as he would not be able to hear it. How’s that for privacy?!
Where Are We?
You would hope that when you hop in the back or front of an Uber that your driver is well-formed and knows the area. Or, at the very least, you would hope that they had a good GPS that works efficiently.
While we may hope and pray, it isn’t always a guarantee, and such was the case for this rider. Having our driver stop the car on the highway during rush hour would give us mega anxiety and leave us very irritable.
One-Stop-Shop
Sometimes, when you’re traveling, you forget certain essentials, so this Uber driver chose to be a star and provided those things to her clients. What a great surprise it must be to get into this car and see this!
Whether you need to refresh your breath, fix your teeth, or blow your nose, you’re totally sorted in this case. All you are required to do in return is leave a good rating and maybe even a tip?!
Took a Wrong Turn
Getting lost happens to the best of us. However, when you have GPS in your phone as an Uber driver, you shouldn’t have this problem. But apparently, there are some drivers out there that seem to deal with this regularly.
Though we’re not sure that this was a mistake or simply a calculated maneuver on the driver’s part in order to get a longer ride out of their client. What are your thoughts on this one?
