Reply to comment by _reptilia_ in Ride-share vehicle passenger assaulted, robbed in Baltimore, police say by SystemSensor

Good points. Maybe.

Not a good look for rideshare companies who pride themselves on saying their system is full proof and safe. Beyond an app on someone's phone, getting into a stranger's car requires A LOT of trust on a societal scale that isn't set up for such. Kinda crazy we've talked ourselves into thinking this is okay instead of just investing public transportation like we've been doing for almost 100 years prior.

That would make too much sense and not put enough money in someone's pocket though.

Absolutely no one has ever said that.

Ride share apps are far safer than taxis is what is most often said (and clearly true).
