Yet another asshole being controlled by his phone. I see them all the time while driving.

Yet another reason why I’ll never set foot in a car with someone I don’t know or with someone whom I do know was never licensed by a regulatory agency. While I’ve had some really wild rides in a typical yellow cab, at least I know that someone is going to be responsible to my heirs.

This guys sounds crazier than Palin. But perhaps he drives better than Todd?

Sounds like the mind-control feature of the Uber app was accidentally launched a bit early.

“Our fares are so low because our drivers are INSAAAAAANE!”

(yeah, that places me pretty exactly for time and region)

Interesting new twist for an insanity defence. I guess there’s an app for that.

This is real shit man … When you go to see the dentist, they sneak in an implant to take over your actions — And then, when planes fly over, they discharge particles in the contrails that allow certain frequency messages through — It’s a big government takeover — I’ll bet, when the investigations are done, the targets of his attacks are all libtards who want free stuff and like cataloupes — ARM yourselves before Obummer comes to take away all your shit ! ! ! ----

( excuse me … but I’ve got a call coming in …)

The Jerry Vandyke defense that his mother is a car and it speaks to me seems more credible.

At least he didn’t kill his passengers.

I’ve used Uber several times. The people have always been great.

Your statement that you “will never get in a car with someone you don’t know…”. Have you ever ridden in a cab?? Do you know who that person is picking you up Before Uber (I travel most weeks between San Francisco and St Louis) I took cabs when my spouse could not pick me up or take me to the airport. Then we discovered Uber. They are 150 times better than taking a cab. And with Uber you do know who you are riding with because their name and the make of their car shows up on your phone. I don’t have to have cash because the charge goes to my credit card. I don’t have to worry about a tip because Uber does not allow tipping. And taking a cab from SFO to the Peninsula is often a harrowing experience because cab drivers don’t like going south on 101 since they make more money going the other way into the City. Uber drivers don’t fly down at 90 miles an hour because they know they are going to be rated by the passenger. You don!t have to like Uber or use them but all of my experiences with them have been positive.

Staring back at me?
I have no reason to doubt the man’s claim.
Possible he’s spent some time in Flint?

Let me try to raise the level of discussion by sharing information I learned earlier today in a YouTube comment section:

“Retard whackjob!
Faggots! RandPaul2020.”
