A Reddit user shared his scary experience with a top-rated Uber driver in Delhi. The driver drove fast, changed the route and his app phone also got switched off. Feeling unsafe, the passenger left the ride midway.
New Delhi: Uber drivers with good ratings are trusted by many people. But, a young man has shared his very bad experience with one such driver. This post has been shared on Reddit. Regarding this ride, the young man says that he is lucky that his life was saved. The driver’s behavior was so bad. The young man has given many reasons in the post like speeding, changing the route.
The young man asked, ‘Today my experience with an Uber driver in Delhi was very scary, has this happened to anyone else too?’ The young man had a bad experience from the time of pickup. Despite two minutes showing on the app, the car took five minutes to arrive. When asked, the driver replied that five minutes were showing in his app. The driver said that the vehicle was on the other side of the road and he just had to take a U-turn. Despite being upset by this, he continued the ride, the post said.
As we reached the halfway point of the journey, the situation became even worse. The battery of the driver’s phone, in which the Uber app was running, ran out. Instead of solving this problem, the driver asked the passenger to type the destination in Google Maps on his other phone. This made the young man feel very uncomfortable. The post also said that after this there was no navigation or tracking through Uber.
The young man also told about driving at high speed and breaking rules. Not only this, the driver took the vehicle through some other route. When asked, he said that this is the direction shown in his app. Finally, when the young man did not feel safe, he got off halfway. But what surprised the young man most was that this driver was shown as a driver with a good rating in the Uber app. Many people have commented on this post. Many commented that they too had a similar experience.
