UBER drivers here? Questions

[randys1]

Here is my scenario, I live in one place, my relative in another.

We are 200 miles apart, though I guess that doesnt matter, we could both be in the same city at the same time and this question would be the same.

I have active account, good history, credit card attached to account, I input the address my RELATIVE is at who is the person needing the ride, I input the address he needs to go to, and I order the uber, can that work since I am not being picked up with him?

2. I'm a driver & yes it will work..........

I Picked up a guy here in Pittsburgh & it was his sister in California who requested the ride. Got to talk to her a bit, brother was drunk & couldn't give me his address. She gave it to me & I got him home safely.

4. You'll see a link that reads....

"call driver" just click on that & you'll be in touch with the driver. The link hides your personal phone number from the driver and the driver's personal # from you.
