I took an uber pool on a normally 30 minute drive. It took 1.15 hours. Made 4 other pickups and drop offs on our way back.

I'm okay when ride sharing means 30% longer trip times. But 150% longer was too much for me.

How does that work? I've never experienced more than 2 riders (each 1-2 people) on a ride, and thought they wouldn't do that?

In that case I'd definitely contact Uber. Sounds like the driver didn't drive as he was supposed to.

Sorry if that was unclear. 2 pickups, 2 drop offs.

I wanted to make clear that we didn't just pick the people up. But they were both dropped off first too. Worse yet, the other destinations meant that for my 20 mile drive, we drove through residential the whole time.
