- Do I think all drivers are qualified?
- Some of these drivers really are crazy.
- I don't understand how these people get hired.
(whoosh)

- Hi, I'm Key, and today I'm going to be
sharing with you my ride-share horror story.
The entire time, I can see him coming.
I'm thinking, "Just cancel this guy,
he's going to get on your (beep) nerve.
I get into the car. It is an older man
and immediately he just starts
telling me how beautiful I am,
how I look like I have my (beep) together.
He asked me where I was going.
He keeps asking me do I have a boyfriend.
I say yes because I want him to
stop talking to me.
And it doesn't stop him at all.
"So, you're boyfriend don't let you have friends?"
And I was like, "No, he's crazy, he kills people."
(knife being pulled) (woman gasps)
And he proceeds to tell me,
"Oh yeah, I know why he's killing people
because I know you got some good (cat meowing)."
Yeah, (laughing) took a hard left.
"I can tell by the way you sittin'
you got that good good."
And I was like, "Did not know that
vagina had a posture."
Hey, uh, can we change the topic?
He was like, "Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to offend you or anything."
And then he starts going on to all this (beep).
"I have a four bedroom house in Crenshaw.
And, like, don't nobody live with me so
if your boyfriend ever, like, (beep) up,
like, I'm here."
And I'm just, like, trying to be nice
because I don't want to be murdered or raped.
I texted one of my guy friends and he called me,
and I talked to him the rest of the way.
I was actually on my to work.
As soon as I get out, I reported this man.
That's, like, grade A, textbook sexual harassment.
And, I'm like, if you felt that comfortable
saying that to me, there's no telling
what you're saying to other people.
Who looks at somebody, like a complete stranger,
you're 30 years older than me,
you don't look back at a woman and just
tell her, "Hey, I can look and tell by the way
you sitting you got some good (cat meowing)."
Who wants to hear that?
(whoosh)
- When I was in school, I was a student,
so me and friend, like, went to this
school event.
So everyone went out for just like a few
casual drinks.
Was not drunk at all
and we're like, "Okay, we should just be responsible."
We picked up a ride, normal friendly conversation
with this driver.
Then, me and my friend noticed something strange.
That the driver had, like, a camera
placed in the front of the car
and it was recording. Like, we saw
the red button flashing and we're like,
"Okay, well what's that for?"
And I was expecting him to just be like,
"Oh yeah, I like to record my rides
for, like, safety reasons, just to make sure,
like, if anything happens, like,
we'll have it on record."
But, no. Instead, he was like,
"Oh, yeah yeah. I record everything for, like,
my personal use. I just like to watch
the videos at home."
(horror music plays)
And we were immediately freaked the (beep) out
and we were like, "Okay, sir, can you please
stop recording us?"
And he started freaking out, he started cursing at us,
like calling us all sorts of names.
"Okay, we need to like, get out."
He pulled over on the side of the road
and tells us to get the (beep) out.
And we're like, "What?!"
We're literally in the middle of a highway.
And so we get out, we don't know what to do
or who to call. So, we're like,
"Okay, I guess, (laughing) like, let's call another one."
And we ended up getting in a different car
and telling the new driver this crazy story
and he was like, so apologetic.
He was horrified that we had to go
through any of that.
Luckily, we made it home safe,
but it was a very uncomfortable situation.
(whoosh)
- Little old me is getting off of set
and it's about 10 PM.
Pull out my handy phone, call myself a ride.
I look down and it's like 5 minutes away,
so I'm like, "Okay, I can deal with this."
I'm watching as my driver starts driving
in just, kind of, circles around the area.
The time had passed that he was
supposed to get here.
I call him, "Hey, what's up, where are you?"
He's like, "I'll be there in a minute!"
Okay, cool.
A minute passes, and then another and another,
and it's 10 minutes later and at this point,
I'm getting really nervous.
I don't want the ride cancellation fee.
I call him again.
He picks up and he's like,
"I'll be there in a minute, I'll be there in a minute!
(groaning)"
He sounds kind of flustered.
He finally shows up, 45 minutes later.
He pulls up and I can tell he's kind of pissed off.
We start driving and every time we get to a turn,
he asks me if we should turn here.
You should probably follow the GPS.
We get to the freeway and there is a row
of tollbooths and when it registers in his mind
that he is going to have to pay for
one of these tollbooths and so
we're driving perpendicular to oncoming freeway traffic
as he makes this U-turn.
And I'm holding on for dear life thinking,
"Oh my God, we're going to get T-boned,
Oh my God, this is how I go,
Oh my God, why didn't I cancel this ride?"
But we finally make it towards downtown.
We're about to turn onto my street
and this voice just pops into my head and says,
"Just tell him you're going to walk from here
and just get out of the car."
And I don't listen!
He makes the worst left-turn onto my street
and BOOM! (crash)
we get rear-ended.
Hit my head really hard, I black out.
Come to and the police come and the ambulance comes.
You know, I'm fine, obviously,
but I couldn't move my neck for, like,
the next week.
If you have a voice in your head that's like,
"Don't go in this car,"
don't go in the car!
Funny story is the set that I
had been coming off of,
I had been playing a character
who had just gotten in a car accident
and hit her head.
Someone was obviously playing
a massive prank on me that day.
