Earlier this year we warned our blog community about the danger of ride share services in Kansas City despite online cheerleaders touting these silicon valley startups.
And now . . .
KANSAS CITY POLICE SEX CRIMES DETECTIVES TELL LOCALS TO BEWARE OF RIDE SHARE DANGER AMID A YEAR OF NASTY ASSAULTS!!!
Take a look:
KSHB: Kansas City police warn about being sexually assaulted while using ride-sharing companies
Deets:
Since the holiday season last year, there have been at least seven sexual assaults involving ride-sharing usage . . . "You wouldn't put your child in a car with a stranger, so why would you get into to a car with a stranger?" Sgt. Cleve Blakely, a detective with the KCPD's Sex Crimes Unit said.
Sadly, this is just one danger out of many confronting Kansas City residents amid harsh times during the holiday season.

And getting into any cab isn't getting into a car with a stranger?
ReplyDeleteYeah, all ride share drivers are rapists, just like all mexicans and la cuca raza dreamers and supporters because TKC told you so!
ReplyDeleteJust don't get in the car with a black person and you will be fine.
ReplyDeleteWas that the Cum Guy or the N-Word Guy that advised of the sexual assaults?
ReplyDeleteThey are all your denizens.
Wait until there are streetcars being driven by strangers.
ReplyDeleteThe statement "Since the holiday season last year, there have been at least seven sexual assaults involving ride-sharing usage." is awfully vague ... I have a feeling many of those incidents 'involving' ride-sharing usage: 1) Do not involve legitimate Uber & Lyft transactions; and/or 2) Do not involve the driver of the vehicle, but rather passengers who got in the car together.
ReplyDeleteMoral of the Story: If you take a cab in KC you are bound to get fucked one way or another.
ReplyDeleteA better background-check process (that the City completely caved on) may have prevented some of this, but getting into a cab isn't much safer. Bad apples exist, plain and simple, and all the due diligence in the world doesn't prevent a few from slipping through the cracks. I'd like to see a comparison of total rides / assaults for both ride sharing services and typical carriage services. I'd bet the numbers are almost the same.
