In a bizarre case, a man in Bengaluru had to sit on the driving seat of an Uber cab and was forced to drive himself home after the Uber driver arrived drunk and tired, only in India I guess?
Narrating his horrific experience on Twitter, the man, named Surya Oruganti, said that the ride back from Bengaluru airport was not quite what he expected. He said that the driver was drunk and drowsy and that he had to pull the car over to the side and drive all the way home.
@Uber_India, the ride back from Bangalore airport was not quite what I expected. The driver was drunk and drowsy. I had to pull the car over to the side and I drove all the way home. Pic with the driver in the rider seat passed out.

He also took a video and posted on Twitter to make sure that his claim is genuine.
Here's a video of the driver who was drunk enough to not know he was being recorded. He was not the driver claimed by the app either. pic.twitter.com/IPnwBkTZ7R

Uber India did ask for the customer tocontact them, which he did and he was informed he should not have drove the car!
This is concerning, Surya. Please share your registered email ID and phone number through which you have requested this trip so that our safety team can get in touch with you at the earliest.
