Driving For Uber, Sleeping In Her Car (HBO )

On Wednesday at 2:30 AM, Uber driver Terri White left her home in Stockton, California, and drove 83 miles to San Francisco for work. She wouldn’t be home until Friday afternoon. White naps in her car between rush hours and heats up her lunch at a local gas station. She says one in five Uber drivers she meets sleeps in their car.
“I love people, I love being able to breathe the air, I’m not confined to a desk, and I can do what I want,” White told VICE News correspondent Nellie Bowles. “I don’t have to wait for someone to relieve me for a break or a lunch, I just do it.” Uber’s biggest competitor, Lyft, locks drivers out of the platform after they’ve worked 14 hours in a day. Uber does not.
Watch what its like to be an Uber driver in a city you can't afford to live in.

@joshlarochelle1298 5 лет назад

lady o you’re also forgetting or to stupid to realize this woman’s already lost her job at Uber as sleeping in your vehicle is 100% against company policy. If you don’t have a residence Uber will fire you and if they find out you’re sleeping in your car multiple days a month you will be fired. Glad you think you can manipulate a company and not follow any policies and do whatever you want but that’s not how the world works.

@sheziaholytree 6 лет назад

@Bina Walburn Exactly! None of this makes any sense. At this rate she will work herself into an early grave, either by getting into an accident from working without sufficient rest, picking up strange people and sleeping in her damn car in public. She bought into the Uber propaganda about being autonomous in her work environment while still earning a good wage. She needs to realize that it isn't worth working for Uber. She was better off working in the call center. I think the people who applaud her are mistaking being hard working for being desperate.

Rachel Smith How are you able to judge whether she's making good money or not? I didn't hear anything about how much she makes; just $50/hr. during rush hours. How much is she making at other times? What are her vehicle costs? The IRS mileage allotment for 2018 is $0.545/mile. I don't believe she's making much money; else she wouldn't live in Stockton, while driving in SF. If she made decent money she could at least afford to live closer.

@smbrannon 5 лет назад

With respect to your comment about what your dad makes as an Uber driver, that is irrelevant, and has no bearing on what this person is making. Where is he a driver, and what does he consider "good money?" If person were making "good money" she could afford to live closer to SF (go re-read my comment, I said "live closer," not IN SF); she wouldn't be spending the weekdays away from her children and sleep/live in her car. If she were making "good money," she could afford to live at least in the East Bay and be an easy commute from SF. As for not living in SF were you a "billionaire;" SF has indeed seen better days, and gentrification is a problem for low-income individuals. And again, your statement is subjective, and has no bearing on this unfortunate mother who is no doubt spending so much time away from her family because of her income. However, I'd be interested to know where you live in order to compare how living in SF as a billionaire would compare. Additionally, what experience do you have with SF that gives you this opinion?

@savannahmoore8084 5 лет назад

Maybe she DOESNT want to move to SF? It doesn't sound like she's complaining she seems like she enjoys what she does. And obviously works in that areas because that's where she makes more money. Kids or not, she's a hard worker nothing wrong with sleeping in your car for a few days. She ain't going hungry? She ain't cold? And after a few days away she goes back home and has a break. I thought that was normal 🤷🏽‍♀️ I see normal cab drivers sleep in their cars outside their cab station waiting for customers all the time 😂 she also decides when she wants to nap. When she wants to eat. When she wants to work. Everybody just wanna be a lazy House wife . Go get your hands dirty 🤷🏽‍♀️

@frig1916 3 года назад

Being a partner at a law firm isn’t bad until you realize you have to buy suits, a nice car, get your haircut frequently, etc. See how that makes no sense? Find me a job that pays well that doesn’t involve paying for things. Tradesmen buy tools, which is just one thing but someone like you seems like you wouldn’t understand how much those cost. Mechanics usually end up paying for about 40-60K in tools while making 35-45K in their first year of their careers. Uber is not the most expensive job one has to use their own money to pay for their tools, and $50 an hour is not bad at all.

@Rielestkid 7 лет назад

She's probably making the most you can make driving for Uber. In SF the prices are the highest in the country, and she's driving during peak hours, and using a hybrid vehicle. She's an Uber MVP. I think if Uber allowed tips, she'd probably be able to cut significant hours off her shifts.

@yuriydee 7 лет назад

No tipping is the best part bout Uber to me. I hate feeling obligated to tip. They doing their job nd I'm already paying for the service.

@Rielestkid 7 лет назад

yuriydee No one says you're obligated. There's a new ride app in NYC called "Juno"; when your rate your driver the max 5 stars, it asks, "How about a tip?".. No harm in that. But the obligatory tipping at bars and restaurants is kinda lame, I agree.

@Rielestkid 7 лет назад

Cam F Not sure why, kinda unfair especially when they're making so little.

John Doe yeah which is what they should do, or would you rather a sleep deprived uber driver cross the divider and hit a bus full of kids or cross the line in front of a 18 wheeler on highway, when they nodded off because uber doesn't limit the driving hours, like every other self respecting company does to their drivers on the road. Or maybe just crash into a retaining wall and kill the passengers. To graphic? We solved this major issue once with logs for long haul drivers. If people can't honestly see this becoming a issue because these are smaller cars, that's a super dense thought process. In NYC every driver I have already has Uber, lyft, and 1/2 more always running. A time restraint on uber would not even be a issue, they would just run them staggered like that are already doing and literately drive all night. Even Yellow cab drivers are also running lyft/uber on the side.

Lyft locks drivers out of their account for a reason. Driving drowsy is just as bad as driving drunk. And uber also has regulations for hours in a day that a driver can be online, and drivers can randomly be fined heavily for going over that time. They fail to mention this in their contract so drivers don't know until they're charged the fine ($500 minimum)..I hope that someone tells this woman so that she doesn't have to go through that.
