His driver was made to choose between two options, and he chose one that ensured that they’d both be safe:
“I was late for school, and the Uber driver got stopped and bullied by taxi drivers who made him choose between leaving me and cancelling the drive or paying them. He chose to pay them because he said he didn't want me to be late.”
Pule was touched by what the Uber driver did for him and wished he could have shown more gratitude towards him:
“The rest of the drive was so quiet, but I'm so sad that I couldn't thank him enough.”

@sa’🐆 confessed:
“My problem is that I’d start crying.”
@Blue_Ogaisitse7 shared:
“When the Uber driver drove me home, I realised when I got home that I didn’t have the house keys. He took me back to get the keys from where he picked me up, brought me home without charging me for those two trips because it was late at night.”
@𝒂𝒕𝒍𝒆𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈☆ suggested:
“Maybe it’s because he's probably a father, so he understands!”
@Natasha highlighted:
“Most taxi drivers think they own the world.”
@Owam💙 experienced a similar situation:
“I started crying, and after they took his money, a police van appeared, and he asked the officers to help him get his money back, and he got it back. The officers literally escorted us until I arrived at school.”
@b0k12fly commented:
“Please tell me you gave him the money again. I’d literally withdraw double/triple the money.”
