Rideshare Sexual Assault in Austin
Austin's explosive growth and its massive entertainment district on Sixth Street create some of the highest late-night rideshare demand in Texas. The city's large student population — UT Austin alone enrolls over 50,000 students — contributes to high rideshare usage by young adults in their prime vulnerability years for sexual assault. Austin's legal history with rideshare (the 2016 fingerprint ordinance that caused Uber and Lyft to briefly leave) demonstrates the city's awareness of driver safety issues.
