This is my nightmare. Being trapped in an Uber with a driver who has just lost it. Apparently this guy was giving a ride to 3 women and just lost it, started speeding, driving erractically and claiming they were all going to die. The women finally were able to jump out of the car at a red light and call 911, luckily no one was hurt. The women did state though that they are now avoiding Uber - I can't blame them.

    Isn't there like a panic button in the Uber app now for these situations?

      I think so but it seems slower than actually just calling 911 lol

    Probably it is all the tightwads who don't tip.
