Or do you guage the driver?

I sometimes see if they have the passenger seat pushed way up or stuff laying in the front passenger seat first.

I much rather jump in the front considering I'm more of the social type.

I usually jump in the front. Nothing to be scared of and I always enjoy conversations with uber drivers.

I get in the back. Some drivers really don't want you up front. Also never put your laugage on the seats, use the trunk.

I still haven't used the Ubers yet, but for cabbies:
Drunk: front
Sober/Buzzed: back

Which is the exact opposite of what I do sexually.

Also, if drunk, I LOVE buying cabbies food on the way home.

Well you sure can't give the driver road head from the back seat.

It wouldn't occur to me to sit in front. But I'd rather rip my fingernails out than make small talk with strangers most of the time.

You most certainly can. That's called the invisible stranger

Always front but am considering a switch to back.. Im tired of Uber drivers bitching about how little money the make. Shits way weak and uncomfortable

Last few times I've used Uber was to happy hour with some gfs. The way there...I'm quiet and just playing on my phone most of the way, making polite small talk if they chat with me. Way back home, after 4-5 drinks...I'm super chatty

Whenever I am driving, I encourage female passengers to sit in the front.

General rule

he/she is my chauffeur I do not know them nor do I want to get to know them.

I am paying the company they work for to take me from point A to point B at a prenegotiated price that they already agreed to.

the back discourages conversation just drive me. I do not care if it has been a slow day/uber tip outs suck/yada yada yada. Your life problems and chances are I dont want your negative vibe on me. I am probably off and heading out to get some drinks in me and see some actual friends.

exception

Driver is very personable, likable, and smooth. Drives well not wreck less, Instigates genuine conversation...not a spill per say. That driver will usually get a tip...but I will still be in the back and will usually ask for a card or number to retain future business or accommodations as a preferred driver.
