When you hop into an Uber, Lyft, or a cab, you really never know what you’re going to get. Maybe you have a really talkative driver that wants to chat the entire ride or maybe your driver has great stories to tell about their life or perhaps your driver is just really funny. You never know until you jump in the car and say ‘hello.’ And just maybe? You can snap a great photo of your experience – like these folks.
Here are 60 amazing photos from cab, Uber, and Lyft rides that people just had to share.
There is one thing for sure – people are incredible, thoughtful, and funny creatures.
1) Best cab driver ever.
“My cab driver tonight was so excited to share with me that he’d made the cover of the calendar. I told him I’d help let the world see,” shared this Reddit user. We absolutely love this guy’s sense of humor.
2) When Uber drivers immediately become family
“This is my uber driver Beni, he took me to the hospital and keeping me company since most of my family lives out of the state,” said this Reddit user. Sounds like there is a silver lining in this not-so-fun night.
3) So accommodating!
This Uber driver offers their riders pretty much every convenience you could possibly need. Gum? They’ve got it! Floss? They’ve got that too! How about a lint roller or extra phone charger? Not a problem!
4) Play and ride
This driver hooked up an entire gaming system in the back of their car. Now, riders can play Nintendo 64 while they drive to their destination. Genius!
5) Crank it up!
This driver doesn’t care if you like to blare death metal as loud as you possibly can. Why? Because he’s deaf! And also – he’s not ignoring you.
This person spotted a keychain hanging from their driver’s keys. When they got a closer look, they realized it was the sweetest note ever from the driver’s kid.
7) Terrifyingly awesome
“Our Halloween Uber driver asked us to pose for a picture with her that she could send to scare her husband-who was worried about her driving out late. Mission accomplished,” posted this Reddit user. We want to know what the husband’s reaction was!
8) Meet Mustapha – the highest-rated Uber driver in New York City
“Mustapha speaks four languages, studies computer programming at night at community college, has driven over 10,000 people, and has a rating of 4.96. Truly one of the nicest most inspiring people out there.” It’s now my goal to ride with Mustapha.
9) The Traveling Uber Driver
This Uber driver likes to use the money he makes from driving to take vacations! In fact, here are a few photos of the man’s travels to show just how much your tips mean to him.
10) Convenience overload
Here’s another driver that really wants to please their riders. It’s excessive in the best possible way ever. Look at all that candy! You’d never want to leave the car!
11) Well, you don’t see that every day!
This guy is probably the coolest Uber driver we’ve ever seen. How would you like to be picked up in a Ford Falcon converted into a Mad Max car? So cool.
12) At least he was upfront about it?
This driver informed their rider that there would be a “cat” in the car with them. And…we suppose they’re not wrong? It’s just a very, VERY big cat.
13) Sometimes it’s good to generalize?
This driver decided to create playlists for their riders. However, the playlists are hilariously generalized and it looks like everyone is loving it. “Quiet ppl” might be the best.
So I just started driving for uber and Lyft and I’ve been getting a lot more compliments on my music since generalizing my passengers by 1 of these 11 playlists pic.twitter.com/WhX1O5wZ4b
14) Don’t worry…it was Halloween. Oh, and it’s fake.
The driver of this car thought it would be hilarious to “decorate” their car for Halloween. They aren’t sure if their riders will think it is as funny as they do.
15) The classic Nokia!!!
“My uber driver picked me up from the airport in 5 minutes, which is insane considering he drove all the way from 2002,” shared this Reddit user.
16) A real Renaissance man
This rider was getting out of their Lyft when the driver handed them their business card. David E. Power is clearly a god.
17) Just growing some peppers. NBD.
This driver has decided to grow chili peppers in pots that sit in the cup holders. We have so many questions about this but we also love it at the same time.
18) Driving is second to fishing
This Uber driver need to literally pull off the road to break out actual photos of fish they’ve caught. This guy’s love for fishing makes us so happy.
our Uber driver is showing us pics of the fish he’s caught!!!! we’re stopped in the road for this pic.twitter.com/W07oFWnSw8
“We asked our cab driver what the best tip he ever got was. Turns out he had received that tip earlier tonight!” said this Reddit user. This guy really really loves his sausage.
20) Surrounded by kind words
This driver has their passengers write comments on sticky notes and puts them all on the ceiling. It’s bright, it’s colorful, and it’s full of positivity – so cute!
21) Who wouldn’t love a treat bag?
This passenger was given a little treat bag by their driver. It’s little things like this that can really make someone’s day – and give them a 5-star rating!
22) Bringing a little bit of the outside in
Here’s another driver that wanted to bring some greenery into the car. If you have to drive around all day, it’s nice to have some nature with you.
23) Snacks galore!
Don’t you just love the drivers that stock their cars full of delicious snacks? There’s even a little cooler that keeps drinks cold. So very thoughtful!
24) Darren
You know you’re in Los Angeles when the Uber driver has a headshot strategically placed for you to notice. Well played, Darren. Well played.
25) So many amenities!
“Our Lyft driver was all in on passenger comforts; he had 3 types of chargers on each side, food, and we could pick any music we wanted,” shared this Reddit user.
26) Next level car-gardening
Okay, we’ve seen a few plants in cars at this point but this driver is taking it to the next level. There is literally soil in the side compartment with plants growing out of it.
27) That’s comforting.
This cab driver is reading while driving. Not only that, he’s reading “Learning to Drive” while driving. I would get out of that cab immediately.
28) Simply amazing
Their Uber driver has NBA Jam hooked up in their car for their passengers to pass the time. We’d say they probably have a very high rating.
29) What is even happening?
We’re not exactly sure what’s going on inside this Uber driver’s car but it’s ummm….busy? Festive? Claustrophobic? We can’t figure it out.
30) Unexpected company
This passenger got to sit next to an adorable little kid during his ride. Looks like he gets to ride around with mom all day and meet new friends! Sadly, Uber wasn’t happy about it, however, the internet was there to support the working mom.
@MUDFAP Definitely not okay! Please get in touch by replying to your emailed trip receipt so we can follow up with you about that.
Here’s another deaf Uber driver with a sweet sign that let’s their passengers know they can crank up the tunes. The more bass? The better.
32) Long lost friends
“My Uber driver was a slimmer, cooler, mustached version of myself,” shared this Reddit user. We love this guy’s sense of humor and, seriously, what are the odds?!

33) Extremely specific
This driver lists out exactly what they have in their car and we have to say – it’s oddly specific. And amazing. Seven Spice Girls cassette tapes?!
34) Love this guy
This cab driver in Thailand gives free rides to deserving people and also gives his passengers props to take selfies with! What a great guy!
35) Old school
Yet another Uber driver with a sweet gaming system set up in their car. This time? It’s an old school Nintendo! How cool is that?!
36) Don’t forget to vote!
This Lyft driver turned their car into a voter registration booth. This is actually a really great idea to get people voting! The Spiderman drawing is just a plus.
37) What a peach!
“Welcome to the Peach State! My Atlanta Lyft driver has peaches ready for her riders!” posted this Reddit user. Such a wonderful idea to greet people from out of town.
38) Such a great prank
Although this isn’t a photo of the Uber driver, we love this little game that this person has with them. It’s a great way to freak your friends out for a few minutes.
39) Luck of the Irish
It’s great that people are using Uber for drinking holidays like St. Patrick’s Day. And this driver went all out for the festive Irish holiday.
40) Seeing numbers
This Uber passenger happened to notice that their driver’s hair made the perfect ’23’ shape with the curls. Maybe even 253?
41) Please save it until you exit the car
This driver is sick and tired of people farting in their car and just playing it off like nothing happened. Don’t be rude. Hold it until you can get outside, please.
42) Sweet ride
This Uber driver picked up their passenger in a brand new Tesla S. Looks like Uber is doing well for this person! Makes you think about taking up a side job.
43) Take as many as needed
To help brighten spirits in their car, this driver is giving out free smiles. Literally on their face and on a piece of paper to take with you when you leave.
44) Super driver!
This person’s Uber driver was dressed like Superman, had a Superman sticker on the windshield, and a Superman plush toy on the ceiling. We’re guessing he’s a fan of this life-saving superhero.
45) Roger That
“This is Roger my UPS driver. He stopped by on his day off and we saw his license plate,” shared this Reddit user. Although this isn’t an Uber or cab driver, a professional driver nonetheless.
46) Tee hee hee
A passenger couldn’t resist asking their Uber driver for a photo of their Christmas sweater. Let’s just hope they aren’t baked while driving.
47) Take your pick!
“Our Lyft driver was all in on passenger comforts; he had 3 types of chargers on each side, food, and we could pick any music we wanted,” said this Reddit user.
48) Definitely a member
“As an Uber/Lyft driver, this hat works wonders,” posted this Reddit user. It’s a hat that says “I’m here if you need anything but let’s not do small talk.”
49) First Uber ride ever!
“My friend’s mom sent pictures to her whole family as she hopped into her first UBER ride ever. She’s so excited- and probably had a neighbor take the picture,” posted this Reddit user.
50) When you’re hungry, you’re hungry
This person’s Uber driver stopped for pizza and just left them in the car. Hope they weren’t in a rush.
51) Congratulations!
This driver knows that it sucks to ride in the very uncomfortable third row of the SUV. So? They’ll make it worth your while!
52) Happy Holidays!
This Uber driver makes sure to go all out for the holidays. Complete with Christmas lights strewn about the entire car and Christmas decor hanging from the seats.

53) Yes, please!
How can you go wrong when you have an adorable doggo to keep you company during your Uber ride?! Unless you’re allergic, of course.
This Uber driver literally turned his car into a club on wheels. You and your friends can dance under blacklights with props, beverages, and more.

55) This purse has seen things
A person left their purse in a cab on New Year’s Eve and when it was finally returned to her – her phone had these phones on it. Looks like a fun day!
56) Belt it out!
To pass the time in this Uber, why not sing a little karaoke? Although, the driver has got to go a little crazy after a few off-key singers.

57) Jack! Is that you?!
We have so many questions about this Uber experience but regardless of what was happening, we’re so glad this girl got photo documentation of the experience.
Flashback to when my uber had a bird in his car who looked just like Jack Nicholson pic.twitter.com/9h7Eir1bSM
This Uber driver has a naughty sense of humor in their car. But it makes people laugh so it probably works!

60) Because, why not?
Dinosaurs grilling on the dashboard of the Uber? Why not?! At this point, we’ve seen it all in Ubers and cabs!
