[Uber horror stories](http://www.people.com/article/uber-12k-ride) get passed around [like urban legends](http://www.people.com/article/uber-driver-arrested-attempted-burglary) these days, so thankfully, [Kristen Bell](http://www.people.com/people/kristen%5Fbell)‘s was pretty innocuous.

It just happened to involve a [Bon Jovi](http://www.people.com/article/jon-bon-jovi-finding-neverland-song-beautiful-day) sing-along, and a man wearing a bulletproof vest.

Bell live-tweeted her entire experience, using the hashtag “#ubercarpool.” Read the story below, as it unfolded for her 1.79 million Twitter followers.
