How to enjoy LA while you drive

February 27, 2017 / Los Angeles

The beauty of driving with Uber is getting to work—or not work—whenever you want. But in a beautiful city like LA, driving around often doesn’t feel like work at all. If you find yourself in between trips, consider these 5 ways to enjoy LA even more:

Did you know all driver-partners can get a free Pandora account through the partner app? Set the scene with your favorite station or discover something new. Pro Tip: If you don’t have an AUX cable, your local Greenlight Hub may have some available for free.
Hollywood Blvd might be one of the world’s most famous streets, but LA has a few other iconic roads that traverse the city. Instead of sticking to one area waiting for your next trip, try checking out the neighborhoods along Santa Monica Blvd, Olympic Blvd, or take Mulholland Dr for a scenic view straight from the movies.
Have a little downtime and need an oil change? Several retailers like Firestone, Maaco, Meineke, Midas, Jiffy Lube, and Valvoline Instant Oil Change offer up to 15% off maintenance for Uber driver-partners.
You don’t see too many drive-thrus in LA, but there are more options than just In-N-Out and Starbucks. Check out The Habit in Northridge, Rick’s in Silver Lake, and Gus’s in Westlake—enjoy a tasty meal on the road while drinking in that LA skyline.
If you’re receiving fewer trips during the workday hours, try giving UberEATS deliveries a try. Discover new restaurants to sample, new areas to visit, and new ways to earn money. Add UberEATS delivery to your driver-partner account.
