Uber driver feels safer [-_-] - B A S U

Uber driver feels safer [-_-]

5/7/2017

B A S U recently caught up with Uber driver, Joffrey, who has been driving for Uber full-time for the past 2 years. He has recently purchased the B A S U eAlarm to help him stay a little bit safer on the road.

Joffrey said, "this little thing is great. I don't really use it for personal safety, but more so as a distress signal if I crash my car or something like. I don't wanna end up in a ditch! Last year I actually got rear ended by a driver who ran off before I could get his contact information and he almost ran over an old lady at the stop light. I stopped my car to make sure she was ok and I stayed with her for maybe 3 or 5 mins. I couldn't catch those guys in the car or get their information. Maybe also if I have a camera with my alarm that might help."

Thank you Joffrey for sharing this personal story and for being a valued B A S U customer.
