According to the article, the driver not only kicked her out of the car, but took her out of their way to a remote location not on the direct route to the destination, and told her that she wouldn’t be able to get another Uber from that spot.

He did NOT *kick her out*.

He stopped at a gas station and antique store and waited while she called for help.

He offered to take her back home and she REFUSED.

I'm not buying much of the new story.

He offered to take her back home and she REFUSED.

She was given two choices: Get out or be taken someplace she didn't want to go. It's that simple.
