She filed a lawsuit against Uber and others. She caught an Uber because she thought it was safe. She is paralyzed from the mid-chest down but has regained some use of her hands. Sarah Milburn, 24, of University Park, is shown in the ICU at Baylor University Medical Center, one week after she was paralyzed after a November 2015 crash in a van involving an Uber driver. The suit says Uber should have known and cared about these arrests. Yusufzai, the Uber driver, and the owner of the Uber van, Dawood Kohistanti, were arrested on misdemeanor charges involving a “gambling den” and drug possession in 2014, according to the lawsuit and a media accounts. The company excludes drivers if, in the last seven years, they have convictions for any felonies, driving-related offenses, violent crimes, sex offenses, child abuse or endangerment, speeding over 100 mph, reckless driving, street racing, or alcohol- or drug-related driving offenses. Come to think of it the one time I dressed like Fred Flinstone and drove my Limo I got heaps of tips.Uber says it requires background checks for drivers, according to its website. That wasn't the last tip I got that night either, and I reckon the suit had a lot to do with it. There was an unbelievable vibe during the Olympics here, the outfit made heaps of people smile and have a laugh & photo with me. But the client appreciated that I put some thought into it and rounded it up to $1200.00! This rating system spans the majority of the Uber services offered by the company. The Uber rider rating system is an extension of that. It was a $900.00 peak-demand drop and wait job. Uber has had a driver rating system that passengers use to rate their experiences with drivers and give feedback since the launch of their program in the United States and Canada.

It worked a treat - got him within minutes of him exiting and was able to complete two other transfers after that. To doubly make sure they could find me I bought a bunch of brightly colored helium balloons to fly above me for them to spot over the tops of the crowd. So I went to the fancy-dress hire shop, got me a Jim Carey "Mask" outfit - Bright yellow suit, red shirt, yellow hat, poka dot tie - sorta loud. And how were they going to find me amongst 500 black & white cars with 500 Black-Suited drivers.

The biggest problem I was going to have was how I would find an Asian couple in a crowd of 105,000 people. Some mega-rich clients of mine asked me to look after some mega-rich friends of theirs to and from the stadium. Mind you the BIGGEST ever tip I EVER got was on the opening night of the 2000 Olympics. Have to do my best impression of a Penguin to keep the ratings up. Yep - I'm in a different market space in UBER Black.
