Imagine getting in an accident while having a pax on a cash ride, I mean accidents happen even if you are the best driver in the world. they can and most likely sue you for everything you have. On an app. ride you are at minimum covered with insurance.
Setting themselves up to be a victim
Yesterday while doing a drop off as pax exited the vehicle a very attractive female wearing very revealing attire approached my car and asked me if I’d take her to XXXXX. I refused for two reasons, I don’t take off app cash rides and I already had another pick up.
Im thinking of the South Carolina incident recently. What this woman doesn’t realize is that there are predators posing as ride share drivers that will take her alright. And it probably won’t be the destination she wants and like the case in S.C. it may be her last ride anywhere alive.
Be smart...Be safe, don’t ask any random ride share driver to take you anywhere for cash off app. It may be a ride you’ll regret you ever took.

That could easily be an undercover sting. I am not exactly sure what the fines are if caught by the police, but that is way too much to risk. Once again chances are low, but what happens if an accident is involved? Uber insurance is not going to pay plus your own insurance is not going to pay knowing you were providing a ride for money, so basically you are on the hook for all the liabilities and if you have any assets, you can kiss them goodbye. All for $20.Sunday night, a couple walked up to my car outside the Plaza and offered me $20 to go to the strip.
I passed.
The Kia Soul in front of me took the ride.
