In a 57-second clip with over 400,000 views in a single day, content creator Marleville said she ordered an early morning pickup on Uber so that she could get to the airport. She requested a \u201cquiet trip\u201d without any \u201cmusic or conversation.\u201d However, when the driver arrived, the car had loud music blasting as they drove. Marleville said that she then politely asked for the music volume to be lowered. She explained that the driver turned it down \u201clike one click.\u201d About ten minutes into the ride, with loud music still playing, she asked if he could just turn the music off until they reach the airport. Instead, the driver gave her a surprising response. \u201cHe said, \u2018I\u2019m just going to take you home,\u2019 and turned all the way back around,\u201d the TikToker recalled. Uber driver returns rider home In a follow-up video, Marleville explained that the driver did not know her address when he decided to return her home, as he asked her to provide it. \u201cI had to give him my address, which is now a safety concern for me,\u201d she said. \u201cI try to keep things in perspective. I was confused but not angry\u2026 I hope he was kinder to his next rider.\u201d Marleville said she was able to find a new driver and a different flight so that she could still make it to her destination. TikTok users in the comments were supportive of the content creator, including several Uber drivers. \u201cThere\u2019s a QUIET RIDE selection for a reason. Who Ubers in the morning and then gets upset that someone doesn\u2019t want music, let alone BLASTING loud?\u201d one user questioned. \u201cAs a former Uber driver, I\u2019m shocked! I\u2019m so sorry that happened to you,\u201d another wrote. \u201cYou didn\u2019t deserve to be treated like that. That weight is for him to carry. Glad you\u2019re safe,\u201d a third said. This isn\u2019t the first Uber-related video to take off on TikTok; previously, an Uber driver was filmed breaking into a woman\u2019s apartment while she was sleeping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Uber driver takes rider back home after she asked for music to be turned down TIKTOK: marleville\/FREEPIKA woman went viral on TikTok after revealing that her Uber driver took her back home after she asked for the music to be turned down.
