Miami Uber Driver Arrested: Gun Pulled on Passengers During Dispute

Miami Uber Driver Arrested After Pulling Gun on Passengers A 23-year-old Uber driver in Miami faces aggravated assault charges after allegedly pulling a gun on her passengers. The incident, which occurred on May 30, 2025, during a ride from North Miami to Hollywood, quickly escalated from a minor disagreement about directions. According to passenger Chrissy, the driver, Jennifer, reacted angrily when Chrissy and her friend offered directions. "She said, 'I don't need your advice, that's what GPS is for!'" Chrissy recounted. This remark further inflamed the situation, leading to the driver pulling out a gun. The video footage shows the driver on the phone, clearly agitated, and repeatedly asking the passengers to exit the vehicle. Chrissy's friend, who was recording the incident, captured the driver's increasingly erratic behavior. The police arrived shortly after, arresting Jennifer at the scene. Jennifer's attorney claims she acted in self-defense, but Uber has swiftly fired her, stating they do not condone such behavior. The incident has sparked widespread discussion on social media, raising concerns about passenger safety and the responsibilities of ride-sharing drivers. The case highlights the need for both drivers and passengers to remain calm and respectful during ride-sharing trips. It also underscores the importance of using ride-sharing apps responsibly and adhering to safety guidelines.
