Uber: "Finding a driver"?

3,047 369 September 6, 2024 at 05:33 PM
My first time trying to use Uber(or any ride share).

I have to go to a funeral about 35 or 40 miles away, tomorrow morning.

I reserved a ride appointment for 9am tomorrow. For the last 2 or 3 hours the status shows "finding a driver".

How long before I know my ride will show? Thanks.

Never mind. Finally found a driver after a couple more hours.

Be sure he turns the headlights on during the procession.

All of them, but since my X5 has DRL's they come on regardless of being in the procession or not.
