The Tragedy of a Rideshare Passenger Dropped Off on the Highway: A Reminder of Driver Responsibilities
A recent tragedy on I-25 highlights the importance of rideshare driver responsibility in ensuring passenger safety.

While the investigation is ongoing, this incident serves as a reminder of the crucial role that rideshare drivers play in keeping their passengers safe. It is the responsibility of drivers to exercise reasonable care and caution, including ensuring that passengers are dropped off in safe locations.

Not only do they allow drivers to keep the full amount, but they also often indicate that a passenger had a good experience. Some passengers, especially those traveling for leisure or special occasions, may be more likely to leave a tip. Providing excellent service and striving for a great experience for every passenger can help increase the likelihood of receiving a tip.
