I don't think its petty and vindictive
I never ever discuss politics with my clients
The uber driver is letting his clients know a political stance
I would never ever let a client know where I stand on any political issue
I treat all my clients in a professional manner

Afraid I have to disagree that displaying a sticker that reflects his views is equivalent to discussing politics with customers. We should be able to take a ride with someone who holds views different from our own and not feel compelled to take a shot at their ability to earn. It's a symptom of the toxic polarization of America.
The mind hungers for that on which it feeds.

This intolerance will be the downfall
of the Left. They want a dictatorship,
not a democracy. Others views cannot
be tolerated. You know who else has
this attitude. Little children. It's something
they grow out of, hopefully. Taking your
toys and stomping home, crying the
whole way.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

I took a Lyft to the bus stop when I took a Chicago trip last weekend.

The driver had an NRA bumper sticker on his car.

One star.

Petty and vindictive. Doesn't seem too much to expect people to rate their driver based on transportation service provided. It's a matter of treating people how you would like to be treated. I can't stand the NRA, by the way.


why are u suprised?

u are talking about a guy who claps when people die............
clapping when people die is SICK!

Good riddance.

You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Here we go, summers here and the
Uber nutjob drivers are on the road.
No snow, light out til 10 pm. Had
a minority driver Fri who spoke no
English and couldn't keep his car
on the road. He was looking
everywhere except straight ahead.
Rubbernecking like a tourist in
NYC. Where these people learn
to drive is a mystery.

I've had plenty of Uber and Taxi rides and have found the professionalism of Uber drivers orders of magnitude better. Hail a cab in Vegas and you'll likely get somebody from Somalia who speaks no English and doesn't know where anything is off the Strip. The other possibility is a seasoned pro who will try to cheat you one way or the other.

I totally agree
Last time I was in Vegas, last month, I used Uber a lot
