Checking road information
Large events often change traffic patterns. The Driver app’s navigation will show you an up-to-date road map. In addition, avoiding pickups in restricted areas, being cautious when driving in an event area, and following standard traffic laws can help you safely navigate your pickups.
Waking up sleepy riders
Long days, late nights, and heavy libations can often cause riders to nap during their trip. If your rider has nodded off and can’t get out of the car at dropoff, you can use these suggestions to wake them up.

Large events can be difficult to navigate, but these ideas could help give you peace of mind—and potentially more earnings opportunities—during those busy times.
