Depends on how sketchy the driver seems, but often up front because I like to control where hes going and sometimes if yr not paying attention they'll take a crap (ie more costly) route.

Also, I dont like feeling like some Driving Miss Daisy nob.

I would never think to open the front door

Actually sometimes in an uber I sit up front.

Now I feel like I'm doing it wrong like I've been going up the wrong side of the escalator or something D:

I mostly go in the front, but I've noticed a lot of drivers have the front passenger seat in a very forward position and need to adjust it (to accomodate me) when I get in, as if they don't expect me to get in front

In the latest qantas safety video it shows someone getting into the front of a New York taxi and the driver saying "You must bean Aussie". I didn't know this was a thing, or at least a thing that the marketing people at qantas think is a thing. I have no idea about what safety point they were trying to demonstrate, the video takes so long trying to explain how awesome Aussies are at travelling that I tune out, I assume the key points are the same, at least it isn't painfully awful like the British Airways one.
