The incident of rape involving an Uber cab driver has come as a shock to working professionals like Poorva Bhardwaj and Sangmitra Sawant who prefer taking private cabs while travelling late nights because of work. "I am shaken after reading about this. The convenience of these cabs with GPS gave a sense of confidence," explains Poorva, a management consultant. "In fact, we had recently stopped the company cab service and switched to Uber because it was convenient and also cost effective."
