I got in an accident
http://uberpeople.net/threads/i-got-in-an-accident.17488/
Another Uber driver left hung out to dry by the Uber insurance or lack thereof.
My rider rating is a 4.8!
http://uberpeople.net/threads/my-rider-rating-is-a-4-8.17221/
More evidence showing just how flawed the rating system is on both sides.
Coachella update
http://uberpeople.net/threads/coachella-update.17601/
Another epic fail by Uber that left riders stranded and drivers gridlocked.

Red in the Face-![Fatjoe]()

Road Trip –![bloom]()
bloom had a pax that wanted to go 180 miles. Drivers agreed that at less than $1/mile it wouldn't be worth it.

Who's Who -![CityGirl]()
CityGirl asks which pax have had the most interesting occupations. Photographers, cameramen, reporters, jet setters, actors, and a hit man topped the list.
