NDTV
Ride-hailing app Uber took action against the taxi driver for allegedly flashing a woman passenger in Bengaluru.
In yet another incident of uncouth behaviour by a cab driver towards female customers, an Uber driver flashed a woman in Bengaluru. The woman shared her ordeal on LinkedIn and the post has now gone viral. Soon after the post, Uber took action against the driver.
According to her post on LinkedIn, she took a cab from BTM 2nd Stage to JP Nagar Metro. She said that the driver arrived on time and "everything seemed normal at first."
To her horror, the driver took an unfamiliar route and she quickly raised her concern about the deviation. He eventually followed the map. After the uncomfortable experience, she decided to request an early drop-off before reaching her intended destination.
Soon after she paid the fare, the driver exposed his private parts, leaving her "traumatized and appalled." She wrote, "At that moment, I immediately fled from the driver, seeking solace within the safety of a nearby crowd. Shock and confusion consumed me, making it difficult to collect my thoughts."
