Discover the top 5 most commonly forgotten items in taxi rides.

We’ve all been there – rushing out of a taxi, juggling bags, and checking our pockets, only to realize later that something important was left behind. It happens more often than you might think. Here are the top 5 items frequently forgotten in taxis:
‍

5. Passport
Traveling can be stressful enough, especially if you realize midway through security that your passport is still in the cab! Always keep your travel documents in a secure and easily accessible spot, and do a quick passport check before saying goodbye to your ride. P.S. – you can book a ride to the airport in advance with Curb’s Ride Later feature for hassle-free travel!
4. Bags
After a successful shopping spree, it’s easy to get carried away and overlook an extra bag of goodies beside you. Take a moment to scan the floor and seat next to you - your new purchases will thank you!

3. Keys
Whether it’s the key to your front door or your office, leaving them behind can turn a routine ride into a frantic search. Before you slam the door shut, make sure your keys are securely in hand.

2. Wallet
Money, cards, IDs – everything we need to navigate the world safely and securely. But in the chaos of exiting a cab, wallets often get overlooked. Always pat your pockets before bidding farewell to your taxi driver, or else you’ll be realizing, “I left my wallet in a cab!”

1. Phone
‍Ah, the trusty smartphone – always by our side until we hop into a cab and, somehow, it ends up left on the vehicle floor or tucked in between the back seats. Losing your phone can feel like losing a limb these days, so double-check before you leave!

Now that you’re aware of some of the most commonly forgotten items, remember to double check before closing the door on your next ride!

Good news though for Curb riders: If you’ve forgotten an item on your last ride with us, you can always reach out to our team at lostandfound@gocurb.com.
