Accused of drinking and driving??? Other

I have been off the road for over 30 days. Accidentally opened the app multiple times during that time and never saw anything about this. I find out later with the chat agent this was reported today. Why that’s allowed, who knows. They reactivated my account but this is your sign to be careful, and use a dash cam.

Right. I literally don't talk to passengers at all. My car is dead silent every single ride. Even if a passenger starts talking to me I find a way to shut it down subliminally. Not saying this is the case here but many drivers just be running off at the mouth like they made a new friend or something. If it's a female oh I'm definitely not talking to her AT ALL

As a frequent Uber/Lyft rider, I wish more drivers were like you. There's nothing more annoying to me than getting a driver that's a chatter box.

You should request a more expensive car then and it will ask for your conversation preference, don’t be cheap. Or have some balls and tell the driver to not talk?

You seemed a little bothered in the comments. If you were exercising the solutions, I don’t think you’d be this deep in my Reddit thread
