Uber driver accidentally picks up sex worker thinking she's a passenger - and she thought he was kerb crawling

The woman got into the Uber thinking he was a kerb crawler, and he thought she was a passenger

An Uber driver in Sydney found himself in a very awkward situation when he accidentally picked up a sex worker.

In a video that emerged recently, Uber driver Daniel Moore picks up the sex worker in what appears to be a case of mistaken identity.

When Mr Moore went to pick up a customer named Chelsea, he found a woman standing there.

When he asked her if her name was Chelsea she said yes. Whether or not she misheard him or didn’t understand is unclear.

What followed was an extremely confusing conversation.

When Mr Moore asked the woman what she did for a living she responded by saying that she was a sex worker.

Appearing un-phased by this information, Mr Moore asked her if she had a busy night.

Then the sex worker propositioned Mr Moore asking “Do you want to do a job together?”

To which Mr Moore politely responded: “No, I have a girlfriend”.

The sex worker then became confused and asked Mr Moore why he picked her up if he didn’t want to “do a job” with her.

She asked him: "Well what do you want to do? Have you got any money? You got $10?"

Mr Moore said that he did not have any money. At this point the sex worker asked to get out of the car.

After he dropped her off, he received a call from the real Chelsea who he explained the situation to and told her that he was on his way.

Now we know why Uber drivers always ask our names.
