If you’re going out for the evening and getting an Uber, you have your usual checklist when getting out of the car.

Phone? Check ✔
Wallet? Check ✔
House keys? Check ✔
Jacket? Check ✔

But did you remember to be sure you had your breast milk? Apparently, not all passengers do.

You won’t believe what people have forgotten in their Ubers

Uber recently revealed not only the cities that are notoriously forgetful when exiting the car, but also the strange things they left behind.

While the typical hubs like New York City, Miami, and Chicago were the most likely to have someone leave something behind, the Garden State made its way to the top ten list.

Newark, NJ, is one of the most forgetful cities according to Uber

Newark was No. 10 on the rideshare app’s ranking of cities where you are most likely to find something abandoned in your backseat.

Even more interesting was what people left behind in a stranger’s car.

Just imagine being an Uber driver just trying to get through your night and you park at home only to find these were in your backseat.
