Most of the complaints I get about Uber drivers from pax is about music. They say that drivers are playing music both loud and with vulgar lyrics. I have experienced the loudness part when I use uber as well. Why uber awards badges for music, I will never understand. Unless the pax requests the radio to be on, I don't have it on. There is plenty of down time to get your music on. Plus the pax are not in the car that long to begin with. Be professional.

I usually play music while I drive but I always make sure its appropriate and quiet. Last night leaving ohare I had some customer who demanded I turn off my music (lovedrive by the scorpions, like come on) in the rudest manner possible. First time it's ever happened

Although he to be fair he also shouted down his mentally challenged son for playing his video game too loudly so maybe this particular guy was just a jerk.

 

[Mom2TJ]

Satellite Radio channel 73, the 1940,s station, no complaints.

 

[Candi]

I usually play pop2k, 80s on 8 or 90s on 9. I get a lot of complements on the music in my car.

 

[NewAge82]

I always play my music. I've never got any complaints & I have a 4.90 rating. It depends on how loud the music is & type of music. If ur playing rap music, then eventually someone will be offended. I play jazz music or lounge down tempo music.

The guy sounds pretty demanding. Did you actually turn off your music completely?

Almost 11,000 rides in 2 and half yrs only 3 people asked me to turn off my radio all with lyft so I 1 stared them and guess what I'll never see them again. I listen to 97.9 da loop, this isn't a taxi this is my personal car no way in hell do I want to sit in my car with the radio off in complete silence for the duration of the trip. So f$$$ing awkward

I have those same stations saved plus Lithium to add the alternative and grunge into the mix. Just switch accordingly. Got a Lyft comment from guy last night about the music. He liked the Lithium station quite a bit.

 

[ParrotFish]

87.7 fm. A lot of riders ask me to turn it up !

Do I have an aux cable? NO

 

[Stlman]

Yea they ask me to for an aux too, I use to give it but in the past 6 months I took it out, so no more

 

[pizza guy]

780am. I almost only drive morning rush and the suburban clientele is fine with it. Totally neutral and good traffic reports.

 

[Chicago-uber]

I keep my radio off. I'm one of the people who prefer quiet to music.

If a pax requests radio, I'll turn it on.

 

[Uncledan23]

I play whatever the he'll I want off my ipod, but on my rules sign, I say if you don't like it let me know and I'll change it. Plus there is an aux cord, so if they don't like the music, it's their own fault

I listen to talk radio when by myself in the car, but turn it down when a passenger gets in.

 

[WestBurbsMac]

I always ask if there is anything they'd like to listen to and put on what they want... yes, even the Aux cord. If they say driver's choice, my go to is XM 14 - Coffee House. All acoustic and well received by riders.

 

[Theood89]

I usually have it on 100.3 its a good mix and nothing offensive. My morning riders usually like the Brooke and Jubel morning show with their second date update.

 

[moviefreak666]

I listen to 101.1, 97.9 and 97.1 and I always keep it at good listening volume. In 5600 plus rides that Ive given, only one old lady has asked me if I could change radio station. It was on Lyft.

 

[blackjackross]

I usually play a Spotify custom 250 song playlist that I update every week or so. Early morning drives is either 91.5 FM or 870 AM news radio or silence if the rider is still trying to wake up on a 4AM morning run to the airport. I'm selective about who I agree to provide aux cord to. I can usually tell if I'm going to have a "problem listener" right away. Touch my volume controls and the radio goes off---not negotiable.

I added the Beatles Channel to the pre set when that came on line as well..

Im the opposite. All the times pax requested the radio on regardless of color they always wanted mt to turn on 92.3 or shade 45.
