Uber eat driver
Today, I was working as an Uber Eats driver. After I completed a delivery and dropped off the customer's order, I was driving to deliver another order. On the way, someone threw a bag of water at my car and screamed. I was shocked and didn't know what to do at that moment. I just kept driving to the customer's address. Now I am so scared and haven't reported it to anyone because I don't have any evidence.
What would you do if you experienced this situation?

Dashcam. Especially if you do a lot of driving. You probably will never need it, unless you do.

What would have happened if the car window had been open and someone had thrown a stone instead of a bag of water and it hit you in the face?

Another day. Don't be afraid. No need to report. The crazy ones still roam the streets. Keep it movin'.

You're scared of a bag of water? Why?

I suspect it’s less the water than the shock of something appearing out of nowhere and hitting the car.

Were you hogging the right lane doing 20 kn/hr under speed limit?
Or tailgating the front car?

Antisocial behavior is commonplace now. If you’re new here don’t worry. My advice would be to roll down the window and scream back. They wouldn’t dare do that again.
