Inappropriate Text Sent By Rapido Driver To Woman Goes Viral, Company Responds After Two Days
Rapido: Thanks to the new online and social media platforms and apps, we now don’t have to scramble to search for some utility service that we might require immediately. The startups and seasoned players as well have brought services to our doorsteps.
One such essential service is public transport that caters to an individual or more than one person with a ride-hailing service. And that is how we avail of these facilities. Taking this forward, here is a piece of news about the “not-so-pleasant” experience of a woman who shared her ordeal on Twitter.
The woman, who goes by the name “husnpari @behurababe” on Twitter, alleged that a Rapido driver harassed her by sending her inappropriate text messages after she shared her location with him on WhatsApp.
The woman posted a screenshot of the messages allegedly sent by the driver along with the caption, “shared my location with a captain at @rapidobikeapp and this is what i get???? F*** YOUR APP F*** YOUR MEN F*** MEN”.

According to the messages purportedly sent by the driver, “he had arrived only after seeing her display picture and hearing her voice otherwise he would not have come because her location was far away. Also, I’m not a bhaiyya vaiyya”.
It is to be noted that the woman sent the tweet on March 13 and Rapido Cares replied to her tweet on March 15.
Below is the response tweet from Rapido:
