#NoToDrunkDriving: After Uber Cabbie Turns Up Drunk, B'luru Man Forced To Drive Cab

The customer drove himself to the airport.

In one of the most bizarre cases, a man in Bengaluru was forced to drive the Uber cab after realising that the driver was drunk. When the driver reached the pick-up location, which was Kempegowda International Airport, Surya Oruganti was shocked seeing a badly drunk driver.

Another shocking moment for Surya was that the driver was different from the one on the app. However, Surya decided to drive himself and also clicked pictures of the driver which he posted on Twitter.

“@Uber_India, the ride back from Bangalore airport was not quite what I expected. The driver was drunk and drowsy. I had to pull the car over to the side and I drove all the way home. Pic with the driver in the rider seat passed out. You need to fix this @Uber, @Uber_Support,” Surya tweeted.

He also shot a video:

In its response, Uber tweeted:

Uber India customer service called Surya after almost 20 hours, as per his tweet.
