UBER DRUG SHOCK  Uber customers ‘offered DRUGS by drivers’ amid claims dealers have infiltrated taxi firm

A number of customers said they had been left shaken by the experience

UBER customers have claimed their drivers are offering them drugs with concerns flagged that the taxi system is the “ideal means” to sell illegal products.

Dozens of people have reported the dodgy dealings, with many taking to social media to recount the drug offers.

Customers have said some Uber drivers have offered them drugs

One man took to social media just days ago, writing: “I’ve had Uber drivers offer me sex or/and drugs before”, adding they had been concerned about the driver talking about assaulting their previous fare.

Others flagged that the offers became “aggressive”.

One Twitter user wrote: “Had a bulls*** experience with Uber last night and I’m still kinda shaken.

“Driver tried to push drugs onto me and got aggressive”.

Clapton local James Newman told The Times that he had been offered cannabis by his Uber Eats deliveryman.

He said: “After the food transaction he attempted to close a second deal.

“He sized me up and then asked whether I wanted to buy some weed.”
