Upfront fares /...continued<br />

RSDU<br />

RSDU recommends that drivers<br />

register with all available operators<br />

in their city and start giving<br />

them much more attention.<br />

No operator is perfect when it<br />

comes to driver working conditions<br />

but at least they don’t use<br />

an abusive “upfront fare” system<br />

to cheat drivers out of their<br />

rightful trip pay. Some operators<br />

pay much better than others and<br />

one operator will even let you<br />

know the trip destination once<br />

you arrive to the pickup location<br />

(before the trip starts).<br />

Drivers! It is now in your<br />

very best interest to inform<br />

passengers on any given<br />

platform about ALL the available<br />

operators in your city and<br />

highlight the special offers that<br />

they may currently have.<br />

We see it as a duty of RSDU to<br />

warn and help drivers, ensuring<br />

that disgraceful practices such<br />

as cheating drivers under this<br />

false “upfront fare” pretense are<br />

not allowed to continue in this<br />

country.<br />

RSDU has launched an online<br />

Uber gross fare calculator to<br />

help drivers quickly determine<br />

the real gross fare for a trip<br />

according to the trip meter.<br />

Visit our website and feel free<br />

to use it and compare your Uber<br />

stated gross fare to your actual<br />

trip meter.<br />

Please drive safely at all times.<br />

Stay tuned for (exciting) news<br />

coming soon.<br />
