Uber could solve this pretty easy by using biometrics (like Face ID) for each time a driver accepts a request for a ride. Face doesn't match, driver is shut down for the day. Face doesn't match a 2nd time, Uber contract canceled.
Well see, that would be good for American consumers, good for American workers and bad Ubers pocketbook. Can't do it.agracer said:

Maybe that they have no telling how many people running around under their name, that don't have a license or should be here, much less working here.agsalaska said:agracer said:

What exactly are they trying to solve?
I haven't seen a single complaint about the service.
Knowing the identity of your Uber driver? Is this a real question??agsalaska said:agracer said:

Their logic is the rides with Americans in the car are legals driving, Uber eats is whoever shows up. Nothing like having someone that isn't the person on the app showing up at your house.redcrayon said:Knowing the identity of your Uber driver? Is this a real question??agsalaska said:agracer said:

I use Uber pretty regularly for work. It's almost always immigrants driving, but always in a nice car, and they are usually African. That's from Florida to Arizona.
The only place I have gotten a 'local' Uber driver was in Memphis. It was a good thing that she was local, because I wanted her to make a pit stop to get a bottle of whiskey between the airport and my hotel. I found the closest liquor store on the route and told her to stop there. She flat out told me she wouldn't let me out of the car in that neighborhood and took me to another store in a better environment.
How does Uber know who's actually driving the car? Now that's this has been mentioned, my last Uber in New Braunfels was an immigrant in a rental car with Florida plates. Didn't think much about it at the time.AtticusMatlock said:
Uber contracts with third parties to conduct background checks of everyone including immigration status. No one is supposed to be driving for them without a valid ID and proof of legal status in the United States. They also do criminal background checks. It's too much liability for Uber not to do so.
This should make it easy for ICE. Just call in a McDonalds order and then ID the driver, when he/she shows up. If the driver has a valid driver's license (can check it quickly) then let him/her go. If not detain them for violation of the law and send them back.Fightin_Aggie said:Uber - legal driverShaggySLC said:It's hard to believe they're all legal, it's been a while since I've used Uber and it was clearly an AmericanAtticusMatlock said:

Uber eats - 100% illegals here in Round Rock and Austin
I eat out way more often than I should and the Uber pickup is next to the register
All of them barely speak English and. are pretty obviously illegals

Just got back from Vegas a couple of weeks ago.
None of the Uber drivers we drove with spoke ANY English. None.
In my broken Spanish (and with Google Translate), I talked with one of them. He told me he was Cuban and had been in the states just a few months. Came up from Mexico. Driving a brand new Acura MDX ... clearly not his car.
Uber has a huge liability issue if they don't know who is really driving for them.
