40+ Times Uber Drivers Surprised Their Clients

Food. Drinks. Groceries. What do they all have in common? They’re all things that are now available to us at the drop of a hat. After all, we merely need to grab our smartphones, and we have access to everything we need.

It seems there’s no end to luxuries we have in the 21st-century, as people can instantly get someone to pick them up and drop them off at the touch of a button. While many people want to go to work and head home without much thought, there are times Uber drivers surprised their clients in the best way.

Service dogs will never not be welcome as a surprise from Uber drivers

If there’s one way to make most people’s lives better, it’s to introduce a pet or two. There is something about a four-legged addition that can make plenty of us swoon and forget all about the worries of the day. Amazingly, some Uber drivers have surprised their clients in the best ways – and it all started with a text.

What do you do when you learn your Uber driver has their service dog? You tell them how great it sounds. Thankfully, it seems they were just as happy to be there as they kept an eye on the passengers in the back. Perhaps this is the driver’s way of cutting back on security costs?

A little helping hand can go a long way in an emergency

There are times in our lives when all of us need someone we love by our side. What are we supposed to do when we need to head to the hospital, and all of our family lives out of state? Thankfully, one person had one of the best Uber drivers who didn’t want to leave them on their own.

Instead of dropping them at the hospital and hoping for the best, it seems the Uber driver wanted to make sure they weren’t alone. It certainly looks as though the company was appreciated, as this pair look like they’ve managed to pass the time with ease. Good people do still exist in the world, after all.

Certain Uber drivers leave us wondering where we could be going

What happens when you order an Uber? The chances are you want to get from one place to another as quickly as possible – and for as cheap as you can. There’s a good chance you don’t expect to be transported somewhere entirely different along the way, making this one of the best ways Uber drivers surprised their clients.

It almost looks as though this Uber driver has recreated a scene that would look at home in the fantasy adventure movie ‘Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.’ While Tumnus might be nowhere to be seen, they have managed to set the scene perfectly. We just hope they can see past that cloud.

The holidays are a great time to spread cheer across the nation

The holidays are a time that most of us want to spread some cheer. After all, people across the nation are often busy trying to get their gifts together, their houses decorated, and everything ready for when their loved ones arrive. It can be a great time to be alive and made even better when Uber drivers have some surprises.

Some drivers really want their customers to know they care, which might be why this one started handing out cards for the holidays. It might be small, but this can be all many of us need to turn the day around. We just hope the driver got to see the joy on everyone’s faces before they left.

Being dedicated to your job is one of the many parts of being a hilarious Uber driver

Certain people are more dedicated to their jobs than others. While some of us want nothing more than to get up, head to our desk for the nine to five grind, and head home, others want the world to know they’re defined by their career. We’re not sure we’ve ever heard of such a dedicated Uber driver before.

Still, if there is one thing many of us have learned, it’s to expect the unexpected. That’s probably what happened when this person climbed into their Uber only to see the driver had taken their love for the company one step further by having the name and logo shaved into the back of their head. A plus for effort.

The Uber Lane is reserved for the most unexpected Uber drivers

There are plenty of ways to deal with being stuck in traffic, even if it feels like you have to sit there and watch time go by. Even though it can be pretty annoying to know you could be doing something much better with your time, most of us have no choice but to sit there and accept it.

Not certain Uber drivers. Oh no, it turns out one surprised their client in one of the most unexpected ways. Rather than wait their turn, they mounted the sidewalk into their very own “Uber lane.” We just hope everyone walking on the sidewalk was a lot faster than the person behind the wheel before there was an accident.

Perhaps find something other than the weather to discuss with Uber drivers?

It can often feel as though there’s nothing worse than making small talk with someone we don’t know. Why does it have to be so awkward? Are we meant to talk to Uber drivers or leave them to focus? Do we ask about their day even though they’ve probably been asked 100 times already? It’s often all too much.

Rather than leave an awkward silence, this person decided to make some small talk about the weather. Sadly, it wasn’t long before things got even more awkward as the Uber driver had a surprise of their own. Yup, talking about the heat being “good practice for hell” sure is one way to make everyone uncomfortable.

Everyone is welcome in this surprisingly chilled out Uber – apart from one

We live in a world where people have come a long way, and people are more accepting than ever. Thankfully, it seems some Uber drivers surprised their clients in the best way by telling the world how they want everyone to feel at home in their car. The best bit? Plenty can sit back knowing their safe in their hands.

Of course, there is only one rule: try not to feel under the weather in their Uber. We’re not sure we can blame them. After all, they are accepting of everyone else; not wanting to clean out the car at the end of the night doesn’t sound like too much to ask. We just hope people stick to the rules.

Some of the best surprises from Uber drivers are hours of endless fun

Getting into an Uber and seeing just one of these things would probably be enough to make most of us smile. However, someone wanted to go even further and go down as one of the best ways Uber drivers surprised their clients. Perhaps that’s why they filled their car with everything people could need to relax?

From multiple electronic tablets to a full TV complete with games and everything in between, we’re surprised this Uber driver gets anything done and don’t spend all day in the back of their own car. Thankfully, focusing on driving means that everyone else gets to enjoy the fun along the way instead – and it sure does look fun.

This purse sure knows how to have a good time with their Uber driver

If you want one of the best times Uber drivers surprised their clients, then you have come to the best place. That’s because one driver went above and beyond to make sure someone had something fun to enjoy by the time they got their purse back. It all started when they headed out on New Year’s Eve.

Like many, they suddenly realized they had forgotten their purse and were lucky enough to get it back the following day. However, it wasn’t until they went through their phone that they realized the Uber driver had some fun before the handover. The result? Their purse went on more of an adventure than most of us could hope.

Keep clients busy gaming, and you don’t have to deal with small talk

Some things have stood the test of time, especially when they’re beloved things from our childhoods. Nintendo is one of the many on the list, so much so that things like Nintendo Cafes are quickly becoming familiar sights across the planet. Perhaps that’s what inspired someone to install a Nintendo 64 in the back of their Uber?

It’s certainly one way to ensure you don’t get bothered by your passengers, as most will be so preoccupied trying to beat their high score on ‘Super Mario 64’ that they’ll forget all about making awkward small talk. The more we think about it, the more this might be one of the most genius additions to an Uber.

Don’t question where the heat comes from if you don’t want a surprise from your Uber driver

Something as simple as a heated seat can be all we need to try and warm up on a cold winter’s day. That is until we learn it’s not a heated seat at all, and we’re actually absorbing someone’s leftover heat. That was the case for one person who got a pretty unexpected surprise from their Uber driver.

While they could have kept quiet and gone about their day thinking they were being treated to a heated seat, they just had to say something. The result? They got to learn their Uber wasn’t kitted out with any luxuries – it was all thanks to the person before. Mmm, nothing like sitting in someone’s leftover body heat.

Keeping your hands on the wheel takes on a new meaning with this setup

There is learning how to multitask, and then there’s taking this as far as this Uber driver. However, we’re not sure that being behind the wheel of a car is the best place to learn how to get multiple things done at once. In fact, it might be one of the worst places to test your new skills.

Not only do they have two phones on either side of the wheel, but they’ve somehow installed a keyboard right in the middle of the steering wheel. We can only assume this is to text while driving without technically touching their phones. That or they’re really determined to become a pro-level gamer and need to practice.

This hilarious Uber driver has your name on it

There is a time and a place for a dad joke, and that time is all day, every day. Is there ever a bad time to crack out some of the best one-liners? Okay, don’t answer that. Still, something small like this can be all some need to smile, especially when we think about the planning that went into it.

After all, this Uber driver had to invest in all those water bottles and print out their hilarious labels. That was all before assembling each one and putting them in place. While some might think it’s something small, others can’t help but think how much better the world is with people like this on the planet.

Surprising Uber drivers can sometimes have incredible benefits

Not everyone has a visible ailment. In fact, there are plenty of hidden conditions that people live with every day as they learn how to adjust to the world around them. This person? They simply decided to let everyone know they are deaf – and how it could work to everyone’s advantage. They merely needed a sign.

Stepping into this car means we could be about to embark on one of the best Uber drivers of our lives, as being dead means Seth is happy for people to play their music as loud as they like. After all, they can’t hear it. Of course, this also means people need to know their driver isn’t ignoring them.

Surprises from Uber drivers don’t always have to be so bad

Many of us have been there. You know the moments when you think something amazing will happen only to find out the universe has other plans? It could be planning the perfect picnic only for it to rain or hosting a party only to burn the food. Whatever the case, the world usually surprises us in the worst ways.

Amazingly, one person was in for the best surprise from their Uber driver. It turns out they were in Dubai when they ordered an Uber, only for a Mclaren to turn up. How do we know they work for the company? It might be the name on the side that gives it away – and the likely smile on their face.

You might want to book this Uber driver at night for the best experience

Many of us likely have the same memories from childhood. It could be a smell that takes us back to those happy days or our favorite after-school treat we haven’t enjoyed for years. Another to add to the list might be those stick-on glow-in-the-dark characters that so many of us had on our ceilings above the bed.

Rather than leave these to become a thing of the past, this Uber driver had one of the best surprises. It seems they must have found some old stickers lying around and thought they would jazz up the inside of their ride. We bet riding in this Uber at night really is a sight to behold.

Driving in a new town can get pretty complicated when you don’t know the roads

Have you ever heard of being a backseat driver? That’s when someone tries to tell the person behind the wheel how they’re supposed to be driving and where to go – even though no one asked. Usually, they can be pretty annoying passengers and someone most of us don’t want to have along for the ride.

However, it appears someone needed to be the loudest backseat driver after a certain surprise from their Uber driver. Rather than stick to the road, it seems they thought it would be a good idea to drive along a rail track instead. We’re not sure why they thought it was a good idea, but at least they said sorry, right?

Having a menu is something more Uber drivers need to have up their sleeves

One thing many people love in life is a choice. While some of us prefer to have someone tell us what we need to do or what we’re having to eat, others want a way to add a little spice of variety every now and then. If you’re someone who falls into the latter category, you might be in luck.

That’s because one Uber driver had quite the surprise for his clients with a menu of everything you can choose to talk about on your ride. From talking all about his life to teaching someone about the world to learning about Alaska to a silent ride, it seems there is something for everyone in this Uber.

One Uber driver’s surprise means we’re covered for just about anything

Have you ever had the feeling that some Uber drivers will do anything to make sure their client is as comfortable as can be? You’re not alone – and we might have just the proof. After all, there are plenty of reasons that Uber is more popular than taxis, and looking after customers is just one of the many benefits.

If you’re lucky enough to hitch a ride in this Uber, you can be greeted with just about anything you could need. No longer will you have to worry about forgetting something on a night out. From toothpicks to bandaids and everything in between, this Uber driver has thought of everything someone might need in a pickle.

The machine knows where it’s going: into water

Let’s face it; plenty of us have gotten a little lost along our travels. In fact, that could be what plenty of us need if we want to stay in one of the most isolated places on the planet. What if you just want to get where you’re supposed to be going without taking a detour?

You might want to skip a ride with this surprising Uber driver. We can’t say it’s every day that we’ve had to direct someone back from the middle of the water, but Dinesh somehow pulled it off. We just hope they had their water floaties and could soon flag down a passing ship to get back to land.

Don’t add anything but the tip to this Uber driver’s tip jar

There are plenty of times when we just want to be left alone and don’t want someone to make a joke, especially if it’s a little more adult than we thought. So what about if you climbed into this Uber and saw their sign? There’s a good chance it would be enough to make plenty of us laugh.

After all, it’s not just a way to get people talking. Asking for “just the tip” in the tip jar should also mean this hilarious Uber driver doesn’t have to deal with people using their jar as a trash can. Hopefully, their creativity was enough to earn them a few more dollars in tips along the way.

Stopping on the highway is never a good idea, especially with strangers in the car

Okay, learning all the rules of the road can sometimes be a little overwhelming. However, they wouldn’t be there unless they were meant to keep us safe, right? Plus, some of them are a little more obvious than others, so it might not take so long to make a note of them all, after all.

Sadly, it seems one Uber driver was determined to surprise their clients in ways they never believed by breaking one of the most important rules: not stopping on the highway. The worst part? The Uber driver did this more than once, all to read the signs. It might be time for someone to get them a GPS.

A mobile snack wagon and being an Uber driver apparently go hand in hand

If you’ve ever had a long day at the office or had one too many on a night out with your friends before heading home, you might want to track down this Uber driver and make sure they’re the only ones you use from now on. Why? It seems they must have a partnership with a local grocery store.

At least, that’s what the back of their Uber seems to suggest. From drinks to snacks and everything in between, there’s almost no room to sit in the back, thanks to the number of items on offer. As if all of that wasn’t enough, the blue lighting can help take people back to the nightclub bathrooms on the way home.

This Uber driver’s forever blowing bubbles, pretty bubbles in the air

Many of us spend our lives trying to blend in. That’s great if you never need to get anyone’s attention, but what if you need to stand out in a hurry? That’s where it might be time to take a leaf out of one Uber driver’s book. Apparently, they knew just the thing to make sure they were never missed.

Amazingly, it was as simple as grabbing some bubbles and blowing them out the window whenever they were waiting for someone to find their car. This could be one of the best ways to get someone’s attention, or it could be just the stress relief we didn’t know we needed until now. Someone grab the bubbles.

Taking the long way home turned out a little more expensive than planned

There are often times in our lives when we wake up from a night on the town only to wonder what we ended up doing with our time. That was apparently the case for one Uber user who awoke to find they might have taken somewhat of an unnecessary trip. The best bit? Uber reminded them.

As if that wasn’t enough, it seems even the Uber driver was happy for them to wake up to an expensive mistake as they didn’t correct them when it came to directions to go home. What would have been one simple right turn turned into a trip – quite literally – around the houses to get back to their place.

A NES isn’t something we see every day in the back of an Uber

What is it about Uber drivers surprising their clients with games consoles in the back of their cars? It seems to be a brand new phenomenon sweeping the nation and one we can certainly get behind. That is, at least, if no one gets travel sick in the back of cars. Hopefully, that’s not the case here.

If you’re lucky enough to get away with playing games in the back of a car, then you can enjoy trying to land a high score on this person’s NES. While the TV screen has come a long way since it was first released, the nostalgia from playing some childhood classics is something that never goes away.

Not everyone wants the scenic route home in an Uber

Plenty of us love nothing more than kicking back and relaxing in an Uber as the driver gets us from A to B. There’s a good chance we don’t usually have to worry about them getting lost. After all, many of them spend most of their time driving and know their way around town without any help.

So what happens when they’re not quite so sure where they’re going and end up taking us on the trip of a lifetime? For one person, they learned that a 15-minute trip would soon take more than an hour. We just hope they managed to fight having to pay for the entire journey after someone else made a mistake.

A linoleum floor in an Uber might not be such a bad idea after all

Being an Uber driver is about more than picking people up and getting them where they need to be. After all, most people don’t sign up to be a driver because they want a way to fill their spare time. They need to think about looking after their car while still having enough money to pay the bills.

Perhaps that’s why one Uber driver surprised their clients with a linoleum floor in the back of their minivan? The more we think about it, the more this could be the best idea. After all, we wouldn’t have to worry about anything staining the carpets or what happens if someone drops their snack – we just have to wipe it clean.

It’s always best to stand out in the crowd as an eccentric Uber driver

There is dressing how you want to, and then there’s really doing what you like with your look. That appears to be what happened when this guy woke up and got ready for his day as an Uber driver. Of course, it’s certainly one way to make sure you don’t get lost in the crowd.

After all, you only need to tell someone to look for the most dapper person in the crowd standing next to a station wagon, and they should be able to spot you in an instant. Hopefully, if his driving is anywhere near as good as his dress sense, then someone should be in for the ride of their life.

Getting puppy kisses is something everyone can enjoy

Having a four-legged friend by our side has a host of benefits, and plenty of pets are now having to learn how to not have their humans around again. Why do they have to learn when we could take them with us for a day at work instead? That seems to be what one Uber driver decided to do.

Thankfully, it appears their puppy is just as happy to be there as they’re showering their human with plenty of dog kisses. The best bit? The person in the back of the Uber gets to enjoy all the love from the sidelines and some pretty cute pictures, thanks to one dog’s love for their owner.

Self-driving Ubers might be the surprise no one asked for

How would you feel about a self-driving car turning up as your Uber? There was once a time when they sounded like something out of a sci-fi movie, but now things that were so far away are becoming a reality. While we might be some years away from flying vehicles, technology is moving pretty rapidly.

One person was in for a surprise from their Uber driver when, plot twist: there was no driver. They said there would be a world where no one would have to work as we would be cared for by robots. However, now it’s here, we’re not sure that we’re ready to wave goodbye to everyone in charge of our safety.

Brake checking someone might not be the best thing to show off in an Uber

If you’ve never heard of brake checking, it’s simple. All it means is using the brakes when you don’t need to, usually to scare someone off if you think they’re driving too close. While tailgating can be pretty off-putting for the person behind the wheel, it’s usually never a good idea to risk everyone’s safety.

Sadly, it appears that one Uber driver missed that memo. Not only did they tell their client that they often do it to people if they’re driving too close, but they proceeded to show off what they do with someone else in the car. We bet this person was glad to make it out the other end without any injuries.

There are plenty of benefits to tips, including a vacation or two

One of the many things that come with being an Uber driver is learning how to make the most of any situation. While the drivers get paid for their work, those tips can go a long way to making someone’s life better. That’s the case for one driver who wanted his clients to know how much they mean.

Of course, they could tell their clients all about what they do with their tips, but why do that when he could show them instead? Now, people in the back get to see their fun vacations and feel a little more inclined to leave something to say thank you. It’s a win-win situation judging by those vacation snaps.

Every day can be Halloween if you let the grandkids get involved

There are plenty of ways to get the family involved with work. While being an Uber driver might not mean it’s the best place for a ‘take your child to work’ day, it doesn’t mean they have to stay entirely out of the picture. Perhaps that’s why someone decided to let their grandkids decorate their car for Halloween?

Thankfully, it means everyone can be happy. For one, the grandchildren get to feel like they’re helping as they make the place feel a little more festive. Plus, the people in the back can take in their hard work and bathe in the orange glow as they watch the world go by. Does it get any better than that?

Some Uber drivers surprise us with how prepared they really are

Some people like to live life on the edge and don’t think much about taking everything they need with them every time they head out of the house. Others? They like to be prepared. Thankfully, that usually means good things when they come together. After all, this Uber driver could be all we need if we forget something.

They seem to have just about everything anyone could ever hope for in the back of their car. From just about every type of charging cable to medicine and electronic tablets to snacks, we couldn’t ask for much more from this Uber driver. Hopefully, someone doesn’t have the one phone they don’t have the charger for.

The smoothest moves might be those pulled out by an Uber driver

Living in the 21st-century means there are all kinds of ways to meet the love of our life. Some opt for internet dating. Others like to do things the old-fashioned way and hope they bump into someone while out on the town. This person? They might have found the one they’re looking for through Uber. Yes, really.

All it took was one trip with an Uber driver to get an unexpected text. At first, it looks like nothing more than a simple promotional message to try and get them to come back again. That is until you realize the code they need is “cutie,” and it only works if they grab a ride to dinner. Smooth.

It might take more than $500 to undo the damage of one Uber driver

Feeling tired is something that usually comes at the end of every shift at work. Sadly, it’s something that might be more dangerous than ever if your job means you’re behind the wheel of a car. That’s why it’s so important to take a break and not put someone in danger, just like one unfortunate Uber driver.

Rather than risk losing an extra trip to add to their pay packet, someone seemingly thought nothing more of doing one more drive for the day. Unfortunately, it almost ended in disaster as they ended up crashing before trying to run away from the scene. The saving grace is they got $500 from Uber to say sorry.

There are plenty of benefits to working as an Uber driver for one family

Everyone has their own reason for heading out to work every day. For most of us, it’s knowing we can pay the bills at the end of every month. For this person? They have more motivation than most, as their child seems more than proud of their dad for bringing home money for the family.

As if being proud at home wasn’t enough, it appears they’re so happy with their dad’s work that they want the world to know. It turns out that learning the language is yet another reason this person is so excited to see their dad head off to work each day. Sometimes, it’s the little things in life.

Jack Skellington has been taken to a whole new level with this costume

Every day can be Halloween if we know how to make it work. While this person might be dressed up for the holiday, it seems they might be a pretty big fan judging by the extent of their costume. For those who have never seen the animated movie ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas,’ this is Jack Skellington.

He’s the one in charge of Halloween Town who suddenly learns that Christmas Town is a thing and wants to bring the holiday to life in a brand new way. As Halloween costumes go, we think this might be one of the best we’ve seen. We’re just glad to see it put a smile on someone’s face.

Who knew that race car noises could bring such joy to people’s lives?

One of the things about growing up means we often lose the little things that used to make us smile. That is unless you’re this Uber driver who quickly surprised everyone in the car with his race car noises. While it was probably a surprise to start, it quickly became a fun addition to the ride.

Thankfully, everyone appeared to be having a great time, as it’s already been said that this driver was getting five stars. We just hope they never stop making their race car noises and continue to bring joy to people’s lives. After all, it can sometimes be tough to find a reason to smile each day.

Things can be festive – if you know where to look

What happens when you try to get someone in the holiday mood? If you’re anything like this person, then you might get a reminder that they’re already there and have done their part for the holidays. It all started when they asked why they weren’t wearing a Santa hat for the occasion to make people feel festive.

The twist? All this passenger needed to do was look up, and they could have seen the Uber was complete with tinsel, little gift boxes, and candy canes to bring the car to life. This proves it might be time to keep our opinions to ourselves before checking out the entire situation, so we don’t put our foot in it.

MLMs will stop at nothing to get a new client to sign up

Ah, multi-level marketing companies. These are the things that most of us try to avoid at all costs – unless you’re someone who is already signed up to them. There are a host of MLMs on the market, and plenty have horror stories about someone trying to get them to sign up to their very own branch of the company.

That was the case for one Uber client who suddenly found they were on the receiving end of an MLM sign-up. As if getting a headache from the incense smell wasn’t enough, they weren’t allowed to leave the car until they handed over an email address. Thankfully, they made a fake one before getting out to safety.

A loud bass could be all one Uber driver needs to bond with clients

Who would have thought that being deaf could be one of the biggest benefits when being an Uber driver? At least, that’s the case for someone who has learned how to use it to their advantage. Thankfully, everyone who gets into their Uber can also enjoy their time a little more than most, judging by this sign.

That’s because being deaf means this driver doesn’t have to worry about someone playing their music too loudly. As if that wasn’t enough, they can also join in with the fun a little too if someone has something with a loud bass. Perhaps this would be a good chance to bond with a new friend?

Some Uber drivers have entire performances planned to be safe

Some people will go to incredible lengths to get out of getting a ticket. That was the case for one Uber driver who didn’t want to get told off for being in a taxi zone even though they’re an Uber driver. Thankfully, being an Uber driver means they already had a plan in place to be safe.

It was simple: get out of the Uber and pretend to be relatives. While we’re sure no one was looking too closely at how they were interacting, this Uber driver took things to a new level by hugging their new family member and telling them how much they loved them before sending them on their way.
