Safdar Khan, an Uber driver, narrowly escaped a gun attack in London, which left him traumatized and injured by shattering glass. He was ambushed while making a drop-off, with shots fired just feet away. Despite his harrowing experience, he returned to driving days later but has called for greater support for cabbies, especially after his insurance claim for therapy was denied. Khan's predicament sheds light on the risks Uber drivers face in urban settings and the urgent need for better safety measures and mental health support.
It is not safe to drive in London. My kids don't go to sleep knowing that I'm out there. I feel scared every time I pick someone up.
These guys were hiding in wait and popped out. It felt wrong my passenger told me to step on it. I had to try and turn on my car while they were getting closer.
