Can a driver take someone to a different destination if it differs from the one in the app?

If a passenger decides to change the destination after the trip has started or requests additional stops during the route, the driver can follow these requests. In such cases, the trip fare will be automatically adjusted based on the actual time and distance of the trip. The fare will also include the booking fee and any surge pricing if there was high demand when the trip was requested.
How is the trip fare calculated?

Uber trip fares are calculated based on an estimated fare. The estimated fare allows passengers to know the trip cost before the ride. Fares are calculated based on several factors, including trip distance, time of day, and current demand for rides. Other factors that may affect the Uber fare include the type of vehicle requested, toll fees, and surcharges.

Uber strongly recommends having a camera to be able to appeal to passenger complaints or to protect yourself in case of inappropriate behavior of passengers. Local laws or regulations may require individuals using recording equipment in vehicles to notify passengers about the recording inside or around the vehicle and obtain appropriate consent. Therefore, before installing a dashcam, familiarize yourself with the regulations in your city to understand the requirements.
