When women riders and drivers told us they wanted more control over how they ride and earn, we listened. That feedback led to Women Preferences, features designed to give women the choice to ride with other women. Since our first pilots last summer, we’ve heard just how much that choice matters—from feeling more comfortable in the back seat to more confident behind the wheel.
I’m a man, but I also prefer women drivers. Their cars tend to be better taken care of and cleaner. they also do a lot better at respecting and pre-empting preferences in regard to heat/music. Maybe it’s just my area, but I’ve actually never had a “normal” experience with a male Uber driver.
Either their car is all clapped out, it’s dirty and smells bad, they’ll be blasting MAGA rap, or they get real weird with the dropoff. (Like, bro my legs do function and I can walk across the street or down the block a little bit, it’s ok, I gave you a different address from where I’m actually going anyway). Never had any issues like that with women as drivers.
I get that they’re doing this for reasons of rider safety, but they should let both men and women express a preference.
Dunno what specifically they do that’s weird around the dropoff but as a former Uber driver, I was just trying to make things as convenient as possible/get a good rating and/or tip from a clean and easy drop-off
I get that, but some of them take it too far. Like fighting traffic to get as close to the door as physically possible, such that it actually takes longer than if I had just been dropped at the corner and walked the half block or whatever.
It would take a lot of bullshit for me to not give 5 stars, but I know not every rider will be like that!
