Today we’re diving into a moment that every rideshare driver knows too well — that tense second when a passenger walks up, flings open the door, and says, “What’s your name?” — like they’re TSA, and you’re trying to sneak onto a flight.

It’s a power move, it’s rude, and — frankly — it flips the script on how this interaction is supposed to work. The app tells the rider the driver’s name, car, and plate number. But drivers? They get a first name and a blurry profile pic… maybe. So who should be confirming who?
