The drivers for La Mexicana Express are the worst drivers on the streets of Reading and it's…read moresurrounding areas. They pull out in front of you, and are just very aggressive drivers in general. However, the La Mexicana Express driver I encountered on Friday, 05/16/25 around 8:15 AM on N. 11th St., between Amity and Union, takes the cake and is the reason for this poor review. Unfortunately, I was unable to get a clear photo of the plate or car number, just a blurry photo. However, it was a metallic light-brown/bronze 4-door Chevrolet SUV. The gentleman appeared to be Latino, maybe 50 years old, heavier set, wearing a plain white t-shirt and white Polo baseball hat. As he very quickly sped up next to me, he got super close as if he was about to change lanes. Fearing I was in his blind spot, I gave a polite *beep beep* to essentially let him know I was there. This absolutely unhinged man then proceeded to swerve sharply, attempting to strike my vehicle, while yelling at me in Spanish. He then sped up a bit and break checked me three times- hard enough that my chest hit my steering wheel and my belongings flew off of my passenger seat, and almost sending me into parked cars. He absolutely chose to act this way because he saw that I was a female. The entire thing was so chaotic that other vehicles behind us stopped and stayed back. The most disheartening part? He chose to drive like a mentally unstable lunatic during a busy week day morning, at a time of day when parents and children are crossing the street to walk to school at the very nearby 13th and Union Elementary School. He literally could have killed a walking child. A few minutes later, as I stopped at the Wawa down the street on Rockland, I immediately called La Mexicana. I spoke to a polite female by the name of Jenny, who confirmed she was pretty sure she knew who the driver/vehicle was, and that he was currently at a stop on Moss St, still nearby. She took my information, and let me know that I could expect a call from the manager, Ere, on Monday. It's now Thursday, and no call from Ere. Incredibly disappointing that La Mexicana doesn't seem to care that they have a complete nut case, and not to mention a liability to them, representing their company. If you see a La Mexicana Express car on the road, stay away from them, and certainly don't patronize their business.

I was driving behind #13 on 76 East towards Philly for several miles while he swerved all over the road and almost caused AT LEAST a dozen accidents including almost hitting me. I'm not talking aggressive cabbie driving, switching lanes and all that...I'm talking straight up drunk driving behaviors like straddling the middle line repeatedly and swerving within inches of other cars multiple times. He was WORSE even than a drink driver and could've killed multiple people. He shouldn't even have a driver's license let alone be driving for a cab company. I've never seen a worse driver. Judging by the rest of the reviews this company will clearly KILL YOU! STAY. AWAY.

Uber will always get 5 stars from me…read more Living in one of the 5th largest cities in the U.S., it is often hard, no, impossible to be anything other than a nameless face in a crowd, an otherwise anonymous customer number or just a delivery address. As many issues that Philly might have, there is an unfettered joy and sense of adventure for me with the random, chance encounters the city offers. As I am conveyed back and forth to the South Street vet with my sick little white cat, once again I get to have some funny, interesting, happy, poignant and occasionally simply dull, yawning interactions with Uber's legions of drivers. I love getting a minute peek into the thoughts and lives of these drivers who are so often taken for granted and treated like robots. Sure, some of these folx have complicated lives, second and third jobs and want nothing more to get through their shift in peace and quiet. As an introvert, I always test the conversational waters when I step into an Uber vehicle. If the driver answers me in monosyllables, I take it he or she simply wants to drive, thus I keep to myself. Some drivers are possibly bored yet enthused about chatting so as a result I have been privileged to learn about their families, their country of origin, their snack preferences, some of the odd/interesting/pesky passengers they've conveyed, music tastes and most of all-how connected everyone of us really are. Almost as good, since I don't drive, is having the little kid in me awakened and absolutely thrilled at going out for a car ride. (Sure, it isn't free but the little boy in me never even considers that. He simply has a blast seeing the city from a vehicle...) While Uber is a business, it would be nothing without its drivers. Sure, sometimes they are slow to arrive or they flip your trip to another driver. From time to time, a driver is having a rotten day and acts out a bit. Examine your conscience. Haven't you had similar days or nights, no matter what you do for a living? Rather than bitching and moaning, treat your Uber ride as a way to connect with someone you'd probably never meet in your regular social circle. See your driver like the unique, silly, grouchy, aspiring, single parenting, hard working, dream filled human being they are; under the t-shirt, under the jacket, under the trucker's cap, behind the knock off shades-they are someone just like you.

The ride was easy to book online but if you need to change the reservation, you have to call a number and it's a guy picking up who doesn't answer the phone with the name of the company or anything, and he's also very abrupt. The driver was 15 minutes late picking up my mom - no notification - which made her frantic with anxiety and I had to stop her from driving herself. Pluses were that he was apparently a good driver and they made it in time but still: unnecessary agita in terms of booking and the lack of communication about being delayed.
