You seem to be the only person I have come across who has these issues. You're like a magnet for poor drivers.


Nope, I hear constant stories from drivers
that passengers have told them about
other Uber drivers. Every time I ride just
about. There are a lot of bad Uber's and
that's a fact.

Last week there was one who told me a
woman passenger had an Uber driver
physically pull her out of his vehicle 2
miles from her home because she told
him he made a wrong turn. She was
terrified and filed an assault complaint on
him. I hear stories all the time, every
driver has them. This was yet another
driver from a foreign country, which is
also where most of my problem drivers
are from. What % of Australian drivers
are from Somalia, Ukraine and Bosnia.

I keep taking Uber/Lyft (all the drivers here
work for both companies) because I save
a ton on airport parking. I'm taking one
tomorrow.

I'm learning the hard way that
many Uber drivers have anger
issues. Last week I was waiting
at the airport at the right spot
and the Uber flew by me and
stopped 100 feet down. I didn't
know it was him because he had
no Uber sign in his window, which
many refuse to display.


Why do you keep using a service you hate?

I find it very entertaining, I love seeing
totally amateur drivers try and act like
real cab drivers and miss the mark so
completely. The difference is, most cab
drivers like their jobs, Uber drivers hate
theirs.

As usual, EB just makes things up

Like I said, you're the only person I've come across who has these issues and hears these stories. I never get passengers telling me anything remotely like this. It must just be that you're drawn to them. Actually I tell a lie, I've met 2 or 3 other people with constant bad experiences like you. They were all ex cab drivers/owners too. What a surprise!

I doubt that. "Taxi" was about as fake as it gets. Maybe Americans still drove cabs back then?

Taxi was a stupid show. Cab drivers spend
zero time at the office, you make no money
there. Most unrealistic TV show ever made.

Again, how many drivers in Aus are from
Somalia, Ukraine or Bosnia. My guess is
none.

If there are no cabs available, you don't drive. "Taxi" was the same as my first courier job. You showed up and waited for a run. Cabs need to move to pay for the medallion so they need drivers to be waiting.
