A passenger in an Uber was killed after the driver ran a red light and collided with an oncoming train.
When the two vehicles collided, the car’s right side took most of the damage. All of the airbags deployed, but the passenger still succumbed to their injuries. ‘You’ll never beat a train, a train is always faster than a car,’ Utah Transit Authority spokesperson James Larson told. ‘The hard thing, I think, with rideshare is that a lot of times they rely on their GPS. And all it takes is that split second of them looking down at their phone.’
‘Our hearts are wit the rider’s loved ones during their time of mourning,’ Uber stated. ‘We have deactivated the driver, and we stand ready to assist law enforcement with their investigation.’
