The next time that you’re tempted to get mad at your Uber driver (or your Lyft driver, depending on which company you’re boycotting at the time), remember this video. Seriously, you have no idea what your driver may have just had to deal with. Sure, the driver’s picking you up now but, for all you know, someone may have bled to death in the backseat just an hour ago or so.
That is actually my number one concern when it comes to Uber. I always find myself wondering who was in the car before me and did they take a shower before entering a vehicle. That’s another reason why I refuse to consider using public transportation. I get that it’s good for the environment and everything but people are really disgusting sometimes. I mean, I’m all far saving the planet but people do all sorts of stuff when they know that they’re not the ones who are actually going to have to clean up after themselves.
For instance, the driver in this video — I mean, he’s got people crying in the backseat. He’s got people bleeding all over his car. He’s got a lot to deal with but, at the end of the video, we see why he puts up with it all and it’s a nice “awwwwwww!” moment. I like this video. If it was a feature-length film, the driver would be played by Jason Statham. Of course, I really wouldn’t want Jason Statham to be my Uber driver, just because it seems like he would constantly be stopping the car to get into a fight with other drivers. Add to that, I’d probably be tempted to ask him why he’s driving an Uber instead of making a movie and he’d probably get mad at me for prying.
Anyway, enjoy!
