The actual numbers speak for themselves and the clear motivation for this feature.

About 91% of the victims of rape were riders and about 7% of the victims were drivers. Women made up 81% of the victims while men comprised about 15%

Women Plus were 85% of the victims. This is despite the “ways” Uber has implemented to increase safety.

That’s half of the story the breakdown of drivers and riders would make it look even worse (i am assuming most drivers are actually male)
