It's 6:44 local time here in Gilbert, AZ. I met some friends earlier at the casino for some drinks and gambling. I was there 5 hours and set up an Uber ride home.
The dude that picked me up is named Robert. I had a nice buzz on when he picked me up. My house is about 13 miles from the casino and the first 8 miles of the ride is highway, 65 MPH is the speed limit. The south 202 is the name of the highway.
We were cruising the first 2 miles at 59 MPH and I asked, "what's the speed limit here". Robert told me the speed limit was 65 mph and he wanted to be below that as he didn't want to encounter any cops. I appreciated that. There was no conversation after this exchange.
We got off on my exit (Val Vista) and headed north to my house. It's a good 5 mile ride from Val Vista and the 202 to my house. Val Vista is a 3 lane, 45mph road. Robert, the Uber driver, was committed to the right lane for the first mile after we exited, waiting behind everyone taking a right turn. I suggested cruising in the middle lane for the next 4 miles, and he jerked his car over, and said, "#### you! I know how to drive. Find your own way home". I've never been taken by surprise like that. It really was that fast. I was shocked. I stepped out of his car and respected his wish.
I was shocked, disappointed, and at a loss. I walked 1/2 mile to the local gas station, called a cab, and got home.
Is there anything I can do in respect to contacting Uber and letting them know they have an unstable person driving for them?
I'm a non-confrontational person and will likely do nothing.
Happy 4th of July! Hope everyone is safe out there.
