LOL, that's a good one.

While I might add points for speeding if we were going to miss our flight otherwise, the Metallica would reduce the tip drastically. Having the check engine light on would make me nervous that the car might peter out before we got there, so if anything that would also be a minus.

Having said that, it's been cheaper and more reliable to take a taxi to the airport for at least 5 years, esp now that you are also expected to tip Uber drivers, which was originally not the case. So not sure why anyone would Uber to the airport in the first place.

YMMV
