“I don’t like Jews. I’m not going to ride with a Jewish dog,” the passenger demanded.
Shocking footage captured the moment last week on Tuesday when an Uber passenger demanded to be let out of the car because his driver was Jewish, the UK-based Daily Mail reported.
The driver, who seemed unfazed by the comments, reported the incident immediately to Uber headquarters.
Uber said in a statement that “there was no place for racism” on its platform, the news site reported. “We would encourage any driver, or rider, who experiences this kind of appalling behaviour to report it to us so we look into the matter and take appropriate action.”
Watch this unbelievable incident – and the driver’s elegant response!
