We, as a nation, seriously need to talk about Uber. Letting drivers discriminate against who they want to pick up goes against BASIC.

HUMAN.

RIGHTS.

I threw up in an uber car and he tossed me out...I'm honestly considering filing a class action lawsuit.

What do you think, /pol/?

I think you should be more respectful and not throw up in people's cars, especially people who you don't know, even more especially people who are probably not reimbursed for that kind of thing.

Why wouldn`t you call an ambulance instead of an Uber? Are those people retarded?
>>
>>60994893

There needs to be laws against drivers being able to discriminate against sick people. Just because I mess up your car doesn't mean you have the right to not drive me.
>>
>>60994893
This. Except you do get reimbursed to my knowledge. One of my friends does Uber, and people puke in his car all the time. He offers people trash bags before they get in, and almost everyone refuses it. It's fucking disgusting, and the person that made that comment would feel the same way if it were their car.

Uber is garbage for drivers

You're paid bus fare wages and are expected to provide premium service.

Fuck the passengers and fuck the service.

>Instead of taking David Lee and his wife to the hospital, the Uber driver balked because the expectant mother retched on the sidewalk. He informed them he would lose $1,000 a day if Lee’s wife became sick in the car and, what’s more, told them no other driver would accept a woman in labor as a passenger.

>The couple’s predicament may be a cautionary tale for other expectant parents who plan to use Uber or another car service to get to the hospital. But it also raises important questions of how anti-discrimination laws should apply to a generation of companies that prefer to style themselves as tech platforms rather than transportation services.

>Fortunately, in the case of Lee and his wife, the day ended happily: they summoned another Uber car, which whisked them without incident to the hospital where a healthy baby boy was born a few hours later.

>The issue of how public accommodation laws apply to Uber also surfaced last year after disabled passengers sued the company and its competitor, Lyft, for denying services to passengers with wheelchairs and service dogs. Meanwhile, feminist icon Gloria Steinhem recently included better treatment of the disabled by Uber as one of her ten Christmas wishes.

>>60994751
I am an Uber/Lyft driver, and a full time student. We drive our personal vehicles and what that Uber driver did is absolutely okay. Ive determined that he people who use these services to get around are human scum by and large from my experiences as a driver.

If someone pukes in my car I'm out of commission until I get it cleaned, taking tons of money out of my pocket. Yes we get $150 for a puke from the rideshare company (billed to the puker) but that's definitely not enough to cover the lost earings, and that's when I clean it myself. If you take it to detail there goes your compensation and your earnings for the night.

What this person failed to mention is that her friend most definitely wasn't ill from a medical condition, she was completely trashed, disrespectful, and an entitled piece of shit who most definitely deserved to be kicked out. I will flat out refuse to pick up people who are obviously wasted.

Drunks are always the worst passengers. Had a group of students think they could cram 6 people into a car with open containers of booze. Told them to get the fuck out when they refused to leavea and got argumentative.

Honestly wish I didn't have to ferry degenerates in my car all day long, but between school and another more traditional job, I need the extra income to try and get ahead.

Why the fuck are they using Uber to take them to a fucking hospital? It's not a regular taxi service, you hoons.

This is like that couple who rented out their posh flat on New Year's Eve to some stranger on airbnb... and were amazed when the stranger had a party and trashed the place.

Anyone who thinks UBER should be forced to pick up ill people is firing on three cylinders. Of an 8 cylinder engine.

Uber is a taxi service. It is NOT an ambulance service. You can't make it be forced to be an ambulance service just because you want to save the ambulance fees, either.

They have every right to refuse out of their personal liability.

ATX Lyft Mentor here, and I've also driven for Uber. I'll lurk this thread for a bit to answer questions.

>>60994751
Uber and Lyft drivers are private contractors using their own personal vehicles, and have the right to refuse service for anyone, at any time.

Also it states very clearly in the user agreement, that any damage to the exterior or interior of the car (this includes throwing up) is grounds for immediate termination of the trip and removal of the vehicle.

Did this Uber driver handle this particular scenario in the best way? Probably not; but he was 100% within his rights.

Also, we're only hearing one side of the story; chances are there is other shit that happened that made the driver leave.

>>60995290
>Uber is garbage for drivers

Not true. This is high misconception from people that has been perpetuated by the internet and spurned on by people who are flat out bad to drive. I myself pull in 1,200 a week doing this, and yes I am factoring in insurance, taxes, fuel and IRA expenses.

The reality of the situation is that the money is there, but the majority of drivers, around 80%, will only put in maybe 5 hours into it a week because people are absolutely awful at self management.

>are expected to provide premium service

The only expectation is to provide a friendly atmosphere and a clean vehicle. The rest comes down to ratings. There are drivers out there that provide candy/water/etc; I myself don't and have never fallen below a 5.0 rating ever.

>>60995692
>Had a group of students think they could cram 6 people into a car with open containers of booze.

Just tell them no, and give them a coupon code using your referral so they can summon a second vehicle. Everyone wins that way. They know they are not allowed to fit that many people in.

>>60997476
Because everyone is entitled.

Example:
>pick up dude using Lyft Line when Lyft Line first became a thing
>Lyft Line is a ride sharing feature from Lyft that let's a passenger share their ride with another passenger to cut the costs
>pick up this dude
>ask him if he's aware he selected Lyft Line
>says yes
>start heading to pick up second passenger
>"Uhhh, where are we going? I need to go that way?"
>tell him he selected Lyft Line, and that's why I asked him if he was aware of that
>says he didn't read it when he selected it
>tell him that's not really my issue, and I can pull over and end the trip for him now or he would have to continue with the Line trip
>dude legit throws a huge ass bitch fit
>threatens to report me (for doing my job)
>literally kicks the back seat
>immediately pull over
>tell him to get the fuck out
>ditch him at the side of the road
>finish trip with second passenger
>immediately call Lyft's Critical Response line
>get dude removed from the service and have them bill him a damage fee that goes right to me

In then end, this dude not only got his ass booted out of Lyft, what would have been probably a $10 dollar trip for him became around $80. Rideshare doesn't put up with dicks, and so douchebags like that guy have trouble coping.
>>
>>60997801
Absolutely. I have no idea how people get the idea that their taxi/ride service is meant to replace ambulance, they're not more expensive just "because".

I can only imagine next is someone calling an Uber during a bank robbery as a getaway car.

Call an ambulence if you want to get your bodily fluids all over the damn place. These people aren't civil servants, and they don't want to clean up after your shit. They have no obligation to help, especially when it ruins their own belongings.

I'll have to recheck Uber, but Lyft has an absolutely NO tolerance policy on smoking in the vehicle while driving; that includes passengers.

Also if your car smells like smoke, you are going to get rated down so hard you'll be booted off within your first month; no lie. Seen it happen first hand.

>>60998445
Yeah, they pretty much always take the Driver's side in every situation.


>>60999257
Depends on your area, but more than likely, yes from my experience. The thing you really need to ask yourself is if you are prepared to be your own manager. Can you handle 1099 taxes, can you handle governing expenditures, can you handle creating and depositing into an IRA, would you be able to handle yourself in an emergency situation with passengers?

If you want to do it as a job, you need to be prepared to understand that shit is real work.

>Tbh over should just instate crushing fees for damaging drivers vehicles.

We do. For instance with Lyft, if someone pukes in my car, I take three pictures of it, send it in to Lyft and immediately call in critical response, tell them I require the maximum cleaning fee.

Within 24 hours $300 is deposited into my account. I'll use the $100 for cleaning service at a place here in Austin, and I will pocket the rest.

That money is later collected from the passenger, through Lyft's collection agency.

Point is, if you throw up in a rideshare car, you are going to have a bad time.

Was like $50 to ride around the entire loop.

Also, to anyone else who uses or will use Lyft/Uber, please do yourself and your driver a fucking HUGE favor and input your destination BEFORE you get in their fucking car. Shit takes like two seconds, and makes the whole process a hundred times easier, especially if your drunk ass is too wasted to properly navigate.

That's exactly why uber is a bad idea. It lets a bunch of hipsters take over what was once the well regulated taxi industry, forcing people to use a proprietary phone app that transmists your location if you want to hail a cab at all. They aren't held to the same standards as proffesional taxi drivers, and ignore laws as if they didn't apply to them.

Sure there may be a choice available, but how long will that last when real taxi services capitulate, and the only option is to deal with inconsistent service where the drivers may or may not be criminals of some sort?

Uber comps you a max of $250 for puking, which should be enough for a car detail, especially if you request just the affected area.

Last time I used Uber I was drunk as fuck and ended up vomiting out the window as the car was driving. They charged me about 5x more than I was supposed to be charge, and I paid the fucker an extra $40 in cash for a car wash before i left.

It was the last time I used Uber and the last time I drank alcohol as well.

Think about it. Would you ride in a dirty car that has vomit all over it? No, you wouldn't. The driver will have to waste his time and money to clean the car or get it cleaned. You have to understand that it is a business decision. He cannot afford to let his car run idle for so long, he will lose money.
>>
>>61001120
If the taxi industry was still well regulated and not terrible, services like Uber wouldn't have taken off.

Frankly, the tax industry got complacent and lazy, because they figured they had the market cornered

well then let's weight pro and cons of transporting these people for society:
If they are transported by car:
+++higher safety for the child and the mother
-might damage the car (unavoidable at some point in this line of work)
-will be a stressful experience for the driver


I'm pretty sure saying a car is worth more than the well being of a child and a person is pretty degenerate we don't car if the car get messy, it'll cost more to clean up sure but you should be able to charge the client for it.

As an Uber driver myself, I am on board with this. After I reported someone had thrown up in my car, my license was put on hold until a rep could come out and check the car to ensure it was clean to their standards. 5 days I sat there unable to work, missing out on hundreds, if not thousands of dollars in income because some asshat threw up. People that do that are almost immediately blacklisted and can no longer use the service, but that means nothing when most are traveling in groups, they will just use someone else's phone for it.

If there was a women in labor and her water broke within my car, I would be furious.
>>
>>61000069
We do where I live, and they are expensive as fuck. The last time I was in an ambulance, I think it cost about $600, and all they did was pick me up and drive me to the hospital, which is about 9 or 10 blocks from my house. Not even 4 minute drive. They did not administer any drugs or medical treatment to me. I layed on a stretcher and got wheeled into the hospital, that is is. $600. Shit's ridiculous. The American medical industry are such vulturous scumbags.

>>61001984
Again go back to my previous post citing that most drivers are retards, and don't do this shit properly because they've never done private contracting.

Most likely this guy did one of or a combination of the following that lowered his fee:

>cleaned it out himself, then reported it
>never sent in a picture, or just one, or a really bad one
>waited over 24 hours before reporting and is unable to remember the name or information of the passenger that damaged his/her vehicle

The last one is the most common. I knew a Lyft driver who waited legitamtely a fucking WEEK before reporting it, then she got mad when Lyft couldn't give her the full amount because they wouldn't be able to locate the passenger to charge.

Both Uber and Lyft have very clear and precise instructions on what to do in the scenario of puking, and most drivers just won't do it, nor have the read the instructions because again, it's all private contract, and there's no boss there to babysit you and tell you what to do step by step and make sure you read the informational and training material.

The only difference really is that in Lyft's case, they send out a Mentor (me) to come out and coach you and inspect your vehicle. But once I make sure you know how to use the app, and your car isn't a pos my work is done. I don't give a shit at all form that point whether a driver is too retarded to make it with this gig or not. That's not my job.

The mess really isn't the biggest issue, although it probably is most of what the drivers are thinking about

What happens when the mother gives birth in your backseat? If it goes badly, are you liable for not getting to the hospital fast enough?
What happens when someone rear-ends you and she miscarries? Uber probably has some kind of insurance, but you can't expect an independent contractor to accept that kind of risk because you're too cheap to take appropriate transportation.

Not here. I think our entire economy is funded solely from medical over charges and the court system charging people for probation, tickets, home incarceration ankle bracelets, and there is even a privately owned jail (owned by a small group of judges) that not only kids government funding, and more-so if it is full, but it also charges inmates who have releases, such as for job search, work or childcare, $90 a week rent TO LIVE IN THE JAIL. They also charge you $35 just to be arrested, whether you are innocent or guilty. And it is cumulative for each time you get arrested. And you can be arrested multiple times on one petty misdemeanor charge. And if you have any cash on you, they take their $35. If you don't have it on you, they keep adding it up and will take as much of your cash as they can to cover it. They also make you pay $25 to bail out of jail. Like if your bond is $100, they make you pay an additional $25 that you don't get back.

It's garbage money for the rides and risks you have to make letting niggers into your car.

And have fun with insurance if you manage to get into an accident

Driver saturation and constant fare reductions pretty much guarantee that.

And the thing is, if you're that poor, they can't make you pay. They can't make you pay medical bills at all, at least not in my state. I have close to $200,000 in medical bills that I will never pay. And they only sent me a bill a few times many years ago. They never aggressively tried to get their money.

So poor people would actually pay MORE to call a cab/Uber car, because they would actually have to pay for that, whereas they would never have to pay the ambulance bill.

Oh I thought you meant that pregnant woman. If anything happends in your car, the law doesn't give a fuck that you were "trying to be a good samaritan" it's sad, and morally I'd typically say yeah help her, but given how ungreatful woman are already, I say live and let die if she's too stupid to be in a proper setting to be ready to e rushed to the hospital

That is something that always gets exaggerated, and is kind of a paradox anyway, a self fulfilling prophecy. They charge astronomical rates that people can't pay, then claim that they have to charge astronomical rates because people don't pay. Some hospitals charge like 12-20x their cost for medicine and procedures. Being charge $30 for two Tylenol is ridiculous. They are gouging,plain and simple.

Because taxi company's are a monopoly. it's literally "the joos" in office passing laws that no one can start a taxi company without the government being somewhat involved. the libs are mad because they like the government to be in control of everything.

here's some history behind Denver's taxi monopoly:

>just ignore the insurance problem and pretend its a lie

Literally every point I am making could be googled up as absolute truth.

I'm here to warn potential drivers that you will not make good money doing this. Those days are gone.
faggots like you keep accusing me of shilling for taxis or being a shitty, mad ex-driver so here is my last lyft rating.

I've been doing ride share since the start and been a constant 5-star driver for both lyft and uber and am probably better at it than your shilling ass.

They dont, as I said, when I drive my mom's Camrey her fuel efficiency gauge reads 22mpg with 70k or 80k miles on the car, EPA says it should be 25mpg. And this is from a old lady driving.

>those tires will rape your tranny though
tranny is fine, only problem I've had with it are the usual leaks you'd expect from a car this age. even ran it almost out of fluid on the highway, bad enough that it was making a horrible grinding noise when I finally turned off my stereo; its still going strong. Haven't really had any problems with the power train on that car, its just everything else on it is constantly breaking.

That's something the government should worry about because it is a basic human rights to have affordable health care. But I don't wanna be taxed a lot either so I hope they sort it out themselves

It costs a lot, no doubt, but you'd have to be completely clueless to claim that insurance (especially medicaid/care) don't drive it up.

When people have that spigot of government $$$ in front of them, they really lose all restraint.

>The thing you really need to ask yourself is if you are prepared to be your own manager. Can you handle 1099 taxes, can you handle governing expenditures, can you handle creating and depositing into an IRA, would you be able to handle yourself in an emergency situation with passengers?

Oh god, so few people understand this. Being 1099 is hard. The taxes suck, there are no slow days, unless you're not getting paid. No coverage when you're sick, no one to help out when you're tired or to diffuse a situation with a pissy customer. I did business writing for a few years as a 1099. I gave it up and went back to being a cog in the wheel because I was tired of trying to figure out the best health plan.

Probably not considering how expensive they are, their limited range, and how long they take to recharge. EVs are ment for going to and from work, and being able to charge it over night, not spending all day driving.

You can get the cost waved more often than not. The price is there to dissuade people from abusing the service.

>>61009809
Except they dont. You have go agree to a EULA for Uber/Lyft, no such thing with Taxis. And who the fuck doesnt pay with cash in a Taxi, unless you really need a record to get reimbursed for from your job?

>>61009669
Holidays are usually shit to be honest. The exception is NYE and Halloween. The rest everyone is usually out of town or with family.

Yep.

You got it.

If it were a Taxi company they'd probably be miffed at the driver for losing them business using a company car,
Uber and Lyft are people using their personal vehicles in a taxi service. The woman giving birth could have ruined the interior of this dude's car, the same car he uses every single day of his life. Imagine my surprise reading about this just now.

I mean, if you just doing it for extra money, then not having much time for it is fine. It's not like they'll boot you off or anything. You can sign up and not drive until you are ready.
