There are many Uber drivers out there and there is a real challenge when it comes to their safety. You might have a drunk client or just a shady client in your car.

Hey Gio, how about you get ya fuckin' shinebox?
A .40 Glock works better and I don't have to worry about getting stabbed in the throat.
what happen when you are driving ? ever think about that?
1. Left hand open door. 2. Driver exit door. 3. Driver pull Glock. 4. Passenger run away.
Hopefully a robber isnt dumb enough to rob an Uber driver, when his name, credit card and everything is available on his uber profile lol.
Very bad advice
This is bad advice from someone who is a good fighter. Here is some good advice from someone who is shit at fighting. NEVER EVER get out of the driver seat. Give THEM the money. Its never one man. When they get out of the car drive over him.
Why wouldn't you just exit the car instead of engaging in close quarters?
I don't think fighting in this situation makes sense at all. Leaping over the seat to fight him puts you at a big disadvantage. There's no room to move and he has the knife. Getting stabbed would be more than likely. He could easily just wait for you to turn around and for you to put your seatbelt on.
They have to bring in a WOMEN ONLY service.
Thanks
I am a taxi driver in Amsterdam and I never let someone who is alone take the back seat and certainly not behind the driver.
Couldn't see the angles.
over 6000 rides as a uber driver here… got them all to their destination..maybe the worst thing that could have injured me was someone thought it was funny to pull out a headrest and someone thought it was funny to try to take a bite out of my shoulder
So stupid. You exit the vehicle.
my main concern is, do you always pick up passengers without a seatbelt on? unsafe driving, can you do the Same scenario with you in a seatbelt? I'd like to see a way through that. thank you in advance.
Thanks for the video. I'm going to defend myself.
buy one of those 911 gps locators that serious hikers use and stick it somewhere that you can push it fast if theres trouble..
or why cant drivers just put up a bullet proof glass barrier and prevent most stuff in the first place? Because spoiled whiny people might get offended and give you low rating. Anyone have common sense left in america or just only care about being comfee? waaaa waaaaa
This seems like it could be an episode of The Office.
I would have a baseball bat next to me open rear door and beat him
No-one is trying to kill the Uber driver so relax. Ordering an Uber requires registration and submission of personal info. Uber is a cashless business. Crackheads generally do not have cellphones. A million Uber rides go down every day and zero drivers are getting robbed. Except by Uber maybe.
This video is ridiculous and the instruction is absurd and Inadvisable in too many ways to mention..
I drive Uber every day in the concrete jungle of Los Angeles and ppl are awesome so tell your paranoid lil girlfriend to sack up or quit driving.
Word.
YOU ARE WRONG U BASICALLY SAYING JUDGE THEM BY THE COVER U WRONG FOOL!
Nick, why can't the driver just grab the keys and run also by screaming for help?? I think that a very normal guy will think like this.
Eh…
I think an "in car" "dash cam" and a can of pepper spray would be safer.

One thing I was thinking is most people or some people don't have their seat back far enough to be able to jump into the back seat area to go after the weapon hand.
Another thing I was thinking about was if the knife did come to your neck area would be to obtain control of that hand and to maybe pull that arm toward the steering wheel or the driver door so you can lock it to the side of your body while making the assailant uncomfortable. I love your videos keep them up.
What if you're too slow & run into the knife, just lunge at that knife.. Better to just get out & have some pepper spray or gun!
All these uber driver tips videos bit nothing like this for taxi drivers when I drove cabs untie recently.Why is uber driving treated like it is such a new concept to drive people around for payment?
so youre saying dont wear my seat belt while driving? not really a very informative video as i found the risk of missing the knife or weapon hand was very high especially if youre a bigger person like the guy playing the attacker you can't reach or squeeze through a small gap between seats. also what about multiple people in the vehicle? too many unknowns on this scenario and video so i personally will give a thumbs down… sorry
I TAKE IT YOUR NOT INTO SELF DEFENSE AT ALL …BECAUSE IF IN FACT YOU WERE YOU WOULDN'T BE GIVING READERS THIS ADVICE WITH THIS BEING SAID I WILL DISCONTINUE THIS COMMUNICATION AND LET YOU CARRY ON WITH YOUR MISPERCEPTION OF HYPOTHETICAL SCENARIOS.
worst advice ever. Get out of the car and run. Your life is not worth an insured Prius.
it's fine but also make every passage wear seat belts and put your seat as far away a posible
you are a motherfucking retarded stupid piece of shit – wtf
You are watching too many violent movies.
I'd rather concealed weapons permit and carry a Glock 9mm pistol just to have extra protection built hand self defense is good too.
but you cannot do that when you're driving
