An Uber passenger from Manchester, UK went to meet a friend for a drink. The next morning he woke up in shock after receiving a bill of $39,317 for a ride of 15 mins.
Previously it was at the discretion of drivers whether they allowed passengers to travel with an animal, but customers can now be matched with drivers who are eligible and willing to transport people with their pets.
The US-based company Uber, widely known for its cab services, is planning on extending its services to long-journey bookings; they are already testing the possibilities with a pilot project in the UK.
