Ride app drivers seem to have seen and heard far more on the job than they would like to have experienced. On the one hand, you could argue that it comes with the territory. However, on the other, you have to wonder why customers can't just keep quiet during their rides.

These taxi, Uber, and Lyft drivers have seen it all, from breakups happening right there in the backseat to major life confessions to full-on cheating. In theory, you would think that these guys are getting the full range of the human experience while working on the clock.
