What would you do if police suddenly asked to borrow your car in the middle of a chase? That's exactly what happened to an Uber driver in Houston earlier this month.
Police said relatives tracked the 21-year-old woman to a vacant business parking lot instead of her destination after the rideshare driver had intentionally ended the ride.
The rideshare passenger told police that as soon as he realized they were getting shot at, he ducked down and didn't see who was shooting at them. At last check, the driver was in critical condition.
The victim reportedly told police that two men ran up to him, shot him several times, pulled him out of his vehicle, and stole his car. He later died at the hospital.
Pretty soon, you'll be able to get a lift without a Lyft driver. Lyft has announced it will start using autonomous vehicles.
