This is almost the default in India. The person driving me is almost never the person whose name is shown on the app.

- chewz 7y agoIn Warsaw, Poland there are many Uber drivers from India. If you have a collision with one of them you (and the police) have to wait for his handler to arrive on the scene as the driver speaks almost no English, have no papers etc.. As far as I know the drivers are brought here, live in squalid conditions out in some suburbs, and probably earn next to nothing as the money goes to their handlers. Uber is facilitating slave work managed by organized crime groups on a large scale.
- daemin 7y agoI've had a few Indians drive me here, but it's mostly people from Ukraine, Georgia, and some of the other *stans. The one thing that I've encountered is that multiple drivers sharing the same car.
- sumanthvepa 7y agoOkay. Just to clarify. I’m an Indian living in India, so this behaviour here cannot be some sort of immigration scam. Most likely it’s a case of subcontracting. It isn’t illegal in the sense of a crime. It is probably a violation of the eegistered driver’s contract with Uber. A simple civil tort at best. Uber could cancel their contract and sue them in civil court or Lok Adalat (small claims court)for contract violation. The latter action would be a waste of time though.
