10 words that app drivers don’t like to hear from passengers on a ride
1. “Corre!”
Asking for a rush is one of the things that most irritates app drivers.
After all, they need to follow traffic laws and ensure everyone’s safety.
Rushing to please your passenger can lead to fines and accidents.
2. “Can you turn the air on full?”
Of course, comfort is important, but overdoing the air conditioning temperature can cause discomfort, especially on cold days or when there are more passengers in the car.
3. “Can you change the path?”
Although the request seems simple, it can cause tension.
Many drivers prefer to follow the route suggested by the app to avoid mistakes and confusion about the fare.
4. “Oh, it’s just a stop!”
Making extra stops can disrupt the app driver’s routine, especially if he has other races scheduled.
The ideal is to notify them in advance via the app.
5. “Can you wait just a minute?”
Many passengers take longer than this “minute”, which ends up disrupting the work rhythm and reducing the number of trips the driver can make.
6. “Can you put on a different song?”
Musical taste is something personal.
Some app drivers are uncomfortable when the passenger wants to take control of the sound, especially without asking nicely.
7. “Do you only work with this?”
This is one of the most uncomfortable questions. It may sound like judgment or devaluation of the profession.
Many app drivers see the job as a worthy and strategic choice.
8. “Wow, the car could be cleaner, right?”
Even if the comment is true, saying it directly can be offensive.
The best thing is to avoid criticism and, if something bothers you a lot, report it politely through the app.
9. “Can you pass the signal?”
This phrase should never be said. In addition to being dangerous, it encourages drivers to break the law.
Traffic requires responsibility on both sides.
10. “How much do you earn per month?”
Asking about earnings is invasive and inelegant.
Each driver has a different routine and may feel embarrassed by this type of curiosity.
