Published 17 hours ago2 minute read

The Uber lost and found index has released a list of some of the weirdest and most hilarious things South Africans have accidentally left behind in an Uber.

In the fast-paced digital world, cellphones and cameras topped the list as two of the most forgotten items left in an Uber.

Here are other items South Africans left behind:

Surprisingly, other people have left food behind as well. Groceries topped the list, followed by a pie, then tea, followed by cake and lastly oats.

“We don’t just eat with love; we forget with love too. Whether it was meant to be a midnight snack, office lunch, or gran’s lovingly packed leftovers,” the study said.

When trying to glam up on their way to a special occasion, South Africans have left things like lip gloss/lipstick, hair straighteners, wedding flowers, heels, veils and suits during that pre-wedding chaos.

Other items left include toys and sports gear, a portable inverter, an air fryer, a baby pram and a graduation gown.

Uber said this says a lot about South Africans.

“We’re a nation in motion. We’re vibrant, busy, always heading somewhere and sometimes our things can’t quite keep up. But if nothing else, this data proves we travel with intention: whether it's to celebrate, create, hustle, or heal.”
