A man from Vancouver says that his Uber driver behaved strangely and creepy during his ride to the airport.
In a Tiktok that has generated more than 60,000 views from this writing, Kodi (@. do.yy) says that an Uber driver has made inappropriate comments and progress.
Before that he says that the driver complained about the payment of Uber and how they take half of the cut. Kodi says he politely asked the driver about his schedule.
“I work on Monday-Saturday with Sunday free for a rest day,” replied the Uber driver, according to Kodi.
“It’s great, take a day of rest,” says Kodi that he answered
He claims that the driver replied that the day could also be for intimate relationships.
This caught Kodi overwhelmed. He says that the Uber driver then told him that people will take his personal number to arrange services directly.
“Do you want my telephone number,” the driver said.
“For rides?” Kodi responded.
“For journeys or something else,” he claims that the Uber driver answered.
Kodi says he has experienced the man’s number. He says the driver said, “please” call.
“I’ll. I’ll send you a text message,” Kodi replied.
“It doesn’t matter, as long as I have your number and I can text you. You are so beautiful,” he claims the driver said.
The man reportedly reminded Kodi that he was finished on Sunday and also said that he could take a break from his work if Kodi wanted to hang out during the week. When they approached the airport, Kodi says that the driver told him he was excited and said, “I talk to you and it wakes up.”
The driver also pointed to his crouch area, says Kodi.
When they finally arrived at the airport, the driver pointed to his pants as he helped Kodi with bags. “See what you put on me,” Kodi claims that the man said.
Kodi says he has taken and fled his luggage. Ten minutes later he says he received a report from Uber that the driver was trying to contact him about a lost item. However, he did not remember that he had left something in the car, so he ignored it.
Now Kodi feels traumatized, he says.
“I always thought that I would be the type of person in this scenario to close it immediately, but I wasn’t.
Others claimed to have taken a ride with the same driver.
“Stop, I had him and he was strange to me too,” they wrote.
“Omg I had him as a driver a few weeks ago and he didn’t go so far that I wanted me to have his number, but he complained about the wage,” another answered.
Uber’s Tiktok said on the message: “Support team here – this is extremely worrying to hear. Uber takes the safety of the driver very seriously and we would like to look at this. DM Uber Account information and travel data so that we can investigate further.”
Does Uber have an attack problem?
According to UberSafety is not only a characteristic of the company – it is a basis. “We have invested billions of dollars and countless hours to reduce safety incidents during travel, especially when it comes to sexual misconduct and abuse,” Uber says on her website.
How but one New York Times Research showed that the company received more than 400,000 complaints of sexual violence from 2017 to 2022. A podcast At the exhaust it reported that this means that a person is sexually abused by an Uber driver every eight minutes.
Uber denied It and claims that the figures are switched off.
“First and foremost, the vast majority of the reports cited was less serious and non-physical in nature and he did not fall into the category of sexual violence-as comments about someone’s appearance, flirting, staring or inappropriate language,” Uber said.
The answer to the report concludes: “These reports were exceptionally rare: during the same period 6.3 billion Uber trips took place in the United States, which means that all reports were only 0.006% of the total journeys.”
