[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really understand how having Uber in Charlottesville would help anything.  The perpetrator/murderer/rapist had a taxi driver's license!  He could have been an uber driver (had it existed at the time and/or had HG used Uber).

The fact of the matter is that HG was in the wrong place in the wrong state of mind.  JM got lucky that HG crossed his path.  If HG had wanted a taxi, I'm sure she could have asked the bar tender or bouncer or anyone at a restaurant on the mall to call one for her.  She must have trusted JM based on the way he acted and what he said to her.  She didn't know he was a rapist/killer in disguise -- who would think that?  He may have shown her his hospital ID card and told her "I'll take you home."

I don't think I'm going out on a limb to say that 99% of women today have made a bad choice or two about accepting a ride.... it's just that luck was on our side and nothing catastrophic happened.

This whole situation is sickening b/c most of us are thinking "it could have been me" or "it could have been my daughter."  It's horrifying to see someone so innocent and so full of talent and potential be slaughtered.  It's like a human version of the predator nature shows... except it's not the circle of life.  It's the circle of selfishness and hate. :(

But doesn't uber track the exchange between the selected driver and the passenger? And the cars are outfitted with tracking devices. But with taxis, the driver has to call in the fare and location. So uber knows exactly which driver picked up which passenger and where. [/quote]
