Seriously? Do your kids live in the DC area? I can’t believe they haven’t taken an Uber or don’t have an Uber account. How do they get home from parties in high school? [/quote]

No way my teenage daughters get in strangers cars alone..  Friends parents all seem to feel the same way.  We pick up.   [/quote]

WOW. I don’t know any parents that don’t allow Uber in high school.

According to Uber official rules, passengers must be 18...

To have an Uber account and be able to request rides, a rider has to be at least 18 years of age. Anyone under that age must be accompanied by an adult 18 years of age or older on all rides. As a driver, you should decline the ride request if you believe the person requesting the ride is under 18.[/quote]

People like you are so tired.  It's nice that they have this rule. But it's not what happens. My DD has been put in Ubers alone since she was 13. I track her ride. I meet her outside when she arrives. When I'm ordering the car I tell her the license plate.  Never a problem. [/quote]

I never get the "I track her ride"  theory.  If the car stops unexpectedly what could you really do...terrible things happen in minutes.  [/quote]
