RI Uber driver charged with sexual assault

Surprise, surprise.  Uber has what, 200,000 drivers, and probably 80% of them are men.  You effectively have 160,000 male drivers, and see a sexual assault what, every few months?   How often do you her about sexual assaults on college campuses, etc?  All things considered, you seem to be infinitely safer with your Uber driver than walking home alone in the middle of the night. 

These things happen, but nobody cares except when they can somehow "link" the criminal to Uber.
