Uber Releases 2020 Index of Things Riders Have Left Behind

Just this week, rideshare giant Uber released its annual Lost & Found Index for 2020, and the results are pretty amazing. The index itself covers areas from most commonly forgotten items to the most peculiar, as well as the most forgetful locations and times of the week.

For the most forgetful cities in the US, Lubbock, Texas took the crown, with Oxford, Mississippi, and College Station, Texas following closely. Unsurprisingly, most items seem to be lost on Fridays and Saturdays late at night, while holidays such as New Year’s Day, Halloween and St. Patrick’s Day all record higher numbers of lost item reports too.

According to Uber itself, the top 10 most forgotten items are ones you would imagine are often left behind: glasses, IDs, passports, headphones and keys. The number one most forgotten item of course is listed as a phone, followed closely in second by a wallet.

Along with the common items, Uber also listed the oddest, most peculiar items as well:

1. Mice for my pet snake to eat
