The nerveless affair about Uber is that it let virtually anybody become a taxi driver . The downside ? Sometimes , without any safeguards in place , those recreational drivers do thing that are against the law . Like beat back passengers while they ’re mellow as hell .

Below we ’ve pile up a list of just a few people who think that their Uber drivers were high . Precisely 101 people , to be exact . In some cases , their Uber drivers were kind enough toshare a joint with them . In others , the passenger had to ascertain as their Uber drivers beget out of the machine to do push ups on theside of the route .

Some mass found it funny that their Uber driver were lapidate off their rear end . Other passengers were intelligibly worried about their personal safety . Not that it matter , but every state that has legalized marijuana for recreational use blackball people from drive while high .

I reached out to Uber to need about their policy on drivers operating under the influence . I ’ll update this Charles William Post if I hear back . But I ’m not holding my breath . Get it ? I said I ’m not holding my breather . Because of the mourning band drugs . Not holding my breath . You get it . I know you get it .

Update : Uber provided the next statement , but has yet to suffice question about whether drivers are drug tested before they ’re approved to drive for the service :

I see your story post this sunrise . It ’s disappointing to see you used tweets as your source without providing facts or information to back up these claims . We have a zero allowance insurance policy for alcoholic drink or drug use and would n’t hesitate to dispatch someone ’s approach to the app if something like this is reported to us . I have include a link to our community guideline hereoutlining our policy .
