Recently, a case involving a hitchhiker driver and a minor female passenger was published on the China Judgments Network.
It is understood that this case is a hitchhiker driver in Yunnan, who received the victim's hitchhiking order to go to Guangdong, and the driver added the WeChat of the victim female passenger on the grounds that the call quality was not good, and then invited the victim female passenger to eat barbecue and drink together, during which she forcibly had sex with the female passenger, and then the female passenger broke free and called the police.
It is understood that after the incident, the suspect compensated the victim 15,000 yuan at one time, and obtained the victim's forgiveness, and the hitchhiker driver was also sentenced to three years in prison for rape.
When many media released the news of this case, the headline content was marked as an online car-hailing driver, but in fact, the murderer in this case was a hitchhiking driver, not an online car-hailing driver, not an online car-hailing driver!
Moreover, there is a fundamental difference between a ride-hailing driver and an online car-hailing driver, an online car-hailing driver is a full-time online car-hailing driver, and a ride-hailing driver is a private car owner who drives a private car to receive a hitchhiker order!
However, because many media on the Internet use online car-hailing drivers as the headline, many people have some misunderstandings about the group of online car-hailing drivers, and I think it is necessary to make a correct name for the majority of online car-hailing drivers.
In recent years, various public opinions and remarks involving online car-hailing drivers have emerged in an endless stream, such as the poor service attitude of online car-hailing drivers, the refusal of online car-hailing drivers to turn on the air conditioning, the failure of online car-hailing drivers to help with luggage, and the failure to drive to the drop-off point requested by passengers.
Boosted by public opinion, online car-hailing drivers seem to be bad people and not good people, because the outside world has a solidified understanding of online car-hailing drivers, so many female passengers naturally have a lot of misunderstandings about online car-hailing male drivers, such as drivers looking in the rearview mirror are misunderstood as peeking at themselves, so in this case, online car-hailing drivers actually need the platform to help give a proper name.
You must know that if you want to become a compliant online car-hailing driver, taking Didi as an example, you must first have more than 3 years of driving experience, and you must also have no drunk driving record, no one-time deduction of 12 points, and no criminal record is required to pass the platform's comprehensive background review, and if the driver has a criminal record during the industry after passing the review, he will face the platform's ban and removal.
So in a sense, the threshold for becoming a Didi driver is actually much higher than the background check requirements for most professions in the market. The platform registration review process for rideshare drivers mentioned above is relatively simple, and you can generally register and pass the review by uploading your ID card, driving license, driver's license and vehicle photo.
And the security configuration of the online car-hailing platform is also very powerful, after the driver receives the passenger, the mobile phone APP in the car will turn on the automatic recording, and the orange camera installed in the car will also turn on the collection of audio and video synchronously, if the passenger finds that the driver has misconduct, you can immediately click the one-key alarm button on the passenger side to call the police for help.
In the requirements of the online car-hailing platform, adding the passenger's WeChat without permission is a serious violation and will face the platform's ban and punishment.
Therefore, for the majority of female passengers, the safety guarantee of taking online car-hailing is far higher than that of hitchhiking, there is no doubt about this.
Therefore, if you see the news on the Internet discussing that a female passenger in Kunming was raped by a driver and sentenced to three years in prison, you must clearly know that the suspect is a ride-hailing driver, not an online car-hailing driver!
