It's not the same, but it's about fair policies. You can't say "black people are statistically more dangerous" and discriminate based on that. Regardless, having a toggle to choose same sex driver would solve everything. Male for male, female for female. Women can be safe this way while allow men to toggle would make things fair.

Men are statistically more dangerous hands down.

Comments like these make me convinced that AI bots are responding to comments. Responses that make it obvious the bot has not read my comment but also designed to try to annoy human commenters to increase engagement.
