For the first time since joining Uber, I transported a package instead of a rider. It was very quiet in the car.

Were you the one in the CRV by wall street?
No this was like months ago I made that delivery. I would not be cought dead in the city this time a day .
Should be careful with trips like these. Pax can say you never picked them up/picked up the wrong person to scam you and get a free transport service.

Thier phone isn't in the car with you so Uber can track the pax phone and see they weren't in the ride.

Not only that but you don't have commercial plates. Only commercial cars can do that kind of service

One time I got a job to go to a sushi restaurant and pick up food and bring it to jfk. The guy was Jewish and said the airport dnt have kosher food and had to feed his family.
I have TLC plates
Sounds good. Was this UberRUSH or something like that ? I wanna sign up for it.
OMG Uber Employees are promoting Eats on UP!!!!
Resist, brave Warriors!!:mad:
I have TLC plates
Even Worse..
Cause you are bound by TLC regulations:

  1. (i) No Property-Only Transport. A Driver must not transport property, except blood or vital human organs, unless such property is in the possession of a Passenger.
§54-15(i)

Fine: $100

Apparently only hospitals can use us as a carrier...

Imagine somebody fraudulent says " I gave the driver an enveloppe with $500 in it to take to my son/ brother / friend .... an it wasn't there... "

Good luck clearing your name afterwards.. and it happened to 2 drivers that I know

Damn, I never knew about this. I've had many trips where I just have to drop something off. Didn't know it wasn't allowed

I guess I'll have to take my chances then, if I feel there's a bad vibe then I won't do it. Thanks for the info.

Maybe you still don't know. Just pretend and carry on. These guys screaming "illegal" will do a street hail in a hot minute. ...and the fine is only $100 compared to street hail, which is like $500 minimum.
I once got a ride request from "eric" ... Eric was a box of plumbing hardware; Eric sat in the back and never said a peep; he didn't care that I was blasting sports talk radio the whole way, and Eric had no issues with paying 1.3X for 25 miles; Eric was the best PAX ... EVER

The clients must have tipped you a lot for that delivery ;)
The TLC doesn't allow package delivery for the driver's safety. What if drug dealers started using uber drivers as drug logistics? The consequences will be great.
