    I would highly, highly recommend (depending on your market) you avoid picking up passengers more than 5 min away.

    I pickup up someone at a college that had a destination half a mile away. In the time it took me to pick her up, she could have walked there. And she was a young girl who could have easily made the trip walking. Good thing there's a minimum fare.

    My maximum limit is 5 minutes away and 1.5 miles. Anymore than either of the two I just let it roll through 😂🤣
    I also don’t do any trips that require round trip tolls since Uber will make you pay out of your own pocket for the return toll.

    In my market 10 minutes is my max. Considering the layout of the city. Most of the time they’re longer rides. But I have been screwed before. It happens.
    My biggest pet peeve is people having 2 stops. One being the grocery store. They expect us to wait for them to shop? Hell no lol. I cancel the ride after they get out.

    If you are Uber pro driver you would know the length of the trip before you accept It. Also by not accepting trips that a more than 5 minutes away their acceptance rate would drop and you'd lose your Uber pro status.
