Uber's Annual Lost and Found Index Highlights Unusual Items Left Behind by Riders
Uber has released its annual Lost and Found Index, showcasing a variety of unusual items left behind by riders over the past year. The list includes an ankle monitor, a meat slicer, breast milk, and live butterflies, among others. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the index, which also highlights trends and the most forgetful cities. New York City was named the most forgetful city, with Sunday being the most forgetful day. The index serves as a time capsule, reflecting changes in everyday essentials and trends over the years. Uber, which holds 76% of the U.S. rideshare market, reported over a million lost phones in the past year. The company is introducing a new lost and found reporting process in its app, set to launch nationwide by the end of the year.
