A woman from the northeast living in Bengaluru alleged that an Uber auto driver harassed, abused, and attempted to assault her after she cancelled a ride, sparking outrage on social media. The incident, which took place around 7 PM on October 2, involved the driver confronting her aggressively after failing to arrive on time, despite the app showing "arrived." The viral video shows the driver, identified as Pavan H S, blocking her path, demanding payment, and verbally abusing her while recording her without consent. The woman described the ordeal as discriminatory and unsafe, appealing for stronger passenger protection measures. The post quickly gained traction, prompting Bengaluru Police to request details for investigation. Uber responded, apologising and confirming that the case has been escalated to a specialised team for review. ‘Felt Completely Helpless’: Bengaluru Man Shocked As Uber Auto Driver Scrolls Instagram Mid-Ride, Slows Down on Busy Road to Stalk Actress Sreeleela’s Profile.
