You never know what you are going to encounter when you step into an Uber. Most drivers keep their cars spotless and surprise-free, however, not all of them. These 40 Uber drivers are the exception to the rule.
For example, one driver keeps a live bird in his vehicle that looks like Jack Nicholson. The passengers are so shocked when they enter the car. We can only hope that none of them are allergic to birds. Thatโs just one of the many surprises included in this list though.
From outrageous costumes to giant clouds of smoke filled with lightning over the dashboard, these drivers will have you on your toes for the entire ride. Youโll remember your short trip from point A to point B with them for many years to come.
