[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are your thoughts when you get an overweight rider?

I am an overweight female, and sometimes I worry about requesting a ride bcs the driver may be upset by my size. 
To be fair, I am not so big I have to be forklifted by any means, but I am definitely bigger than most women in the area (think Melissa McCarthy before the weight loss).
Have you had any issues related to passenger size and/or do you feel frustrated when you get a larger passenger?[/quote]

I don't care...if you fit, you sit, and off we go.  I'm fully aware that people come in all sorts of shapes & sizes in this country.

I have had one single issue with a heavy passenger that ended up as a cancelled ride.  This guy was big, like 500+, and there were plenty of other cars that he wasn't going to fit in either.

2 ways to help your odds for a smoother ride:  1) If you're truly concerned, get an uberXL.  It's guaranteed to be a roomier ride and only costs about 25% more. 2) Get choosy about your car model on uberX...feel free to cancel the compact/economy cars until you get something a little bigger like a Fusion, Camry, Accord, or the like.  You can cancel up to five minutes after the request without penalty.[/quote]
