Uber driver 'kicks lesbian couple out of his car for kissing'

[Soph0571]

A lesbian couple was allegedly thrown out of an Uber for kissing.

In a shocking video posted on Facebook, the two women – Emma Pichl, 24, and her girlfriend Alex Iovine, 26 – can be seen being told by driver Ahmad El Boutari that their kiss was “illegal.” 
--------------------
Speaking to the New York Post, Pichl recounted what happened, saying: “We got over the Manhattan Bridge into the city.

“We were sitting on opposite sides of the backseat. At one point we leaned over and pecked [a] kiss, very fast,” she said.

Just five minutes after that, Pichl said the driver “pulled the cab over and said: ‘You should not do that… do not do that.'”

When he forced them to step out of the vehicle, the couple started recording.

In the video, El Boutari tells the pair: “It is illegal. You don’t do this.”

3. Tangentially Related Uber Story

We had a customer audit done by a 3rd party. The woman took Uber from her hotel to get to our site at 9 am. The Uber driver, specifically told not to use GPS, but to follow the written directions, followed GPS. It got them lost.

They call and i'm trying to talk them in as if it were same movie where the guy is flying a plane for the first time and trying to land.

The driver is not listening, and won't give me landmarks so i can place where i am. Finally, i can tell he hands the phone back to the woman and says "That's it, ride's over. I'm pulling over so you can get out."

He left the woman near some big warehouse about 2 miles away. He was only two miles away and was being talked in and just kicked her to the curb.

I had to go get the woman. Surprisingly, she didn't not seem upset. I would have gone full Vesuvius.

4. my daughters jumped out of an uber at a traffic light

after the driver went off on a rant about "queers and trannies".
my youngest is trans (we need gender neutral words for things like daughters and sons and aunt and uncles, etc)

they were terrified. the youngest was about to start arguing, but her sister just dragged her out of the car.

the whole idea of uber and lyft has always scared me.
