Can you think of a circumstance where reasonable suspicion is raised from something he sees while driving and he's justified to pull someone over while shuttling passengers around?

Sure.

If you're trying to turn this into an "are off-duty cops good candidates for Uber drivers?" discussion, you're going to have to find someone else.

So if he seen a murder, he cant call it in since he is not being paid to call in a crime?


That depends on what part of town it's in.

Who does he deceive paychecks from?


If he receives checks from Uber he has indeed deceived someone.

You deserve some sort of medal.

It's cute you think this doesn't happen every day.

You say Uber isn't payinh him to call in a crime. I'm sure they aren't paying him to listen to the radio, take a call from his wife, or any of the other countless things he does while driving people from one place to another.

We are talking about the driver of the uber, the one where the OP quoted he was an off duty cop?

quote:

They took an Uber from the bar, and the driver told them that he was an off-duty cop, and they mentioned that he was eerily quiet and un-engaged most of the ride(which I supposed isn't that out of the norm for an Uber driver.)


Just want to make sure you think he doesn't get a paycheck from uber?

You missed my point. I'm saying that just because he is on a job doesn't mean he can't engage in anything else, like calling in a crime

Yep. I can promise you that Uber is not sending out paychecks to Uber drivers.
