Uber driver shares wildly illegal item a mom left in his car to make sure he didnt leave

We’ve all been there.You’re in an Uber and you suddenly remember you need to make a quick stop on your way home.Milk? Bread? Berocca?You haven’t added the stop to the app, but you tell the driver to pull over, saying “I’ll be one sec,” as you jump out.But you’re worried he might take off without you because they don’t want to wait.
