john05+FollowWhere Do You Sit in an Uber?Is sitting in the front seat of an Uber wild or just smart? The internet’s split: some swear by the front to avoid child locks (hello, true crime paranoia), while others say the back is safer and less awkward. Uber’s official advice? Back seat, always. Pro tip: check the license plate, make the driver say your name, and never accept snacks or drinks—no matter how thirsty you are. Stay alert, keep your phone down, and trust your gut. Where do you sit? #Transportation #UberSafety #Rideshare00Share
Brian Weaver+FollowCalifornia fights AI rideshare price hikesRideshare apps in California could soon be banned from using your phone’s battery level or location to jack up prices when you need a ride most. Lawmakers are pushing a bill to stop companies like Uber and Lyft from using AI to figure out exactly how much you’re willing to pay—like charging more if your phone is about to die. Industry groups argue this will raise costs for everyone, but many are fed up with feeling squeezed by tech-driven “surge” pricing. How do you feel about companies using your personal data to set prices? #Tech #California #rideshare00Share

Melissa Suarez+FollowWould You Pay More for a Robotaxi?Waymo’s self-driving rides are pricier than Uber and Lyft—sometimes by over 40%—but many riders say the driverless experience is worth the premium. Is the convenience and novelty of a robotaxi enough to justify the extra cost, or should affordability still rule the road? Would you pay more for a car with no driver, or does the human touch still matter in your ride? Let’s debate! #Waymo #Robotaxi #Rideshare #Tech11Share
Lauren Cooper+FollowUber’s New Route Share = Cheap Commutes!Uber just dropped a game-changer for city commuters: Route Share! Imagine getting to work for half the price of a regular UberX—yep, that’s the deal.

You can book your seat way ahead or last minute, and the app tells you exactly where to catch your ride. Could this finally make commuting less painful? #Uber #RouteShare #CommuterLife #CityLiving #Rideshare #Transportation10Share

Kimberly Walters+FollowIs GigU a Game Changer or a Rule Breaker?GigU just landed in the US, promising to help gig drivers cherry-pick the most profitable rides using real-time pay-per-mile and per-hour estimates. Uber’s not happy—claiming it bends the rules and risks their platform’s integrity. But for drivers, it’s about transparency and maximizing earnings. Is this the future of gig work, or a slippery slope for ride-hailing apps? Would you use it? #GigEconomy #TechDebate #RideShare #AppInnovation #DriverRights #Tech00Share
