==Reception==
Dan Buffa of ''[KSDK](/source/KSDK)'' wrote that the film "shines a much-needed light on a profession that's not as easy as it looks" and is "far more interesting" than he initially thought it would be.[{{cite web|url= https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/entertainment-news/driverx-review-a-provocative-and-honest-tribute-to-rideshare-drivers/63-490184933|title= 'DriverX' Review: A provocative and honest tribute to rideshare drivers|last= Buffa|first= Dan|date= 8 November 2017|publisher= [KSDK](/source/KSDK)|access-date= 16 November 2022|archive-date= 16 November 2022|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20221116085749/https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/entertainment-news/driverx-review-a-provocative-and-honest-tribute-to-rideshare-drivers/63-490184933|url-status= live}}] Ben Kenigsberg of ''[The New York Times](/source/The_New_York_Times)'' wrote that while the film is "not perfect" and features "one wild night too many", its outlook "lingers".[{{cite web|url= https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/29/movies/driverx-review.html|title= 'DriverX' Review: Behind the Wheel and Ready for Anything|last= Kenigsberg|first= Ben|date= 29 November 2017|website= [The New York Times](/source/The_New_York_Times)|access-date= 16 November 2022|archive-date= 16 November 2022|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20221116085746/https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/29/movies/driverx-review.html|url-status= live}}] Noel Murray of the ''[Los Angeles Times](/source/Los_Angeles_Times)'' wrote that while the film
is a "little reductive when it comes to the generation gap", the performances are "excellent" and Barrial "isn’t playing Leonard’s predicament for cheap laughs or amped-up drama".[{{cite web|url= https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-capsule-review-string-20181129-story.html|title= Reviews: Drama 'DriverX' taps the street-level grind of ride-share services, plus other films|last= Murray|first= Noel|date= 29 November 2018|website= [Los Angeles Times](/source/Los_Angeles_Times)|access-date= 16 November 2022|archive-date= 16 November 2022|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20221116101805/https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-et-mn-capsule-review-string-20181129-story.html|url-status= live}}]
[Frank Scheck](/source/Frank_Scheck) of ''[The Hollywood Reporter](/source/The_Hollywood_Reporter)'' wrote that the film "has the style but not the substance of a strong ’70s indie drama, stalls out quickly and goes nowhere interesting."[{{cite web|url= https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-reviews/driverx-1165653/|title= 'DriverX': Film Review|last= Scheck|first= Frank|date= 2 December 2018|website= [The Hollywood Reporter](/source/The_Hollywood_Reporter)|access-date= 16 November 2022|archive-date= 16 November 2022|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20221116085749/https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-reviews/driverx-1165653/|url-status= live}}] Nick Allen of ''[RogerEbert.com](/source/RogerEbert.com)'' gave the film a "thumbs down" and wrote that it is "selling a lifestyle of working for billion-dollar rideshare companies, masquerading as a light-hearted indie when it has the soul of a commercial."[{{cite web|url= https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/driverx-2018|title= DriverX|last= Allen|first= Nick|date= 30 November 2018|website= [RogerEbert.com](/source/RogerEbert.com)|access-date= 16 November 2022|archive-date= 16 November 2022|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20221116085747/https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/driverx-2018|url-status= live}}]
