"To get locked in a vehicle against your will is completely unacceptable." Melbourne Airport CEO Lorie Argus has responded to a distressing story from the Rumour File this morning. MORE 👉

That Uber driver should be charge with kidnapping or deprivation of freedom , no one has the right to lock you in their car , he should’ve called the police and waited outside the house , and allowed them to speak to the person .

Import the 3rd world…

@RossAndRussel Did they mention the nationality of the Uber Ar*ehole?

Let me guess, the drivers name was Raj? 🤔

Import the 3rd world become the 3rd world I would never visit Melbourne again unless there is a massive clean up of the rotten to the core government

Is that cash for comment BMW Felgate?

Why have they done absolutely nothing to stop the hordes of touters or the insane rip off taxi ranks run by non uniformed random seeming people who direct others to which taxi to use and don’t seem to represent and particular company.

Check the rego and type of vehicle before you engage with a driver. She didn’t and got scammed.

@RossAndRussel Was it a doctor or engineer?

@RossAndRussel It’s not just about resolving it with the passenger it’s about creating a system where it doesn’t happen again …

The real test now is what happened, why it happened, and what's being done to make sure it can't happen again. Sometimes the simplest standard is the best one - if someone says they need to get out, let them out!

If you run the airport sweetheart. Do nothing about it. Fckn usless when you run the airport .

Keep letting the browns and blacks in and this will only get worse

Well said!

What about when police do it?

This is so true

The airport should just ban UBER, this is becoming more common these days and its just not on.
