Sure. My answer depends on data that shows that this rate of assault/etc is likely higher for these people, and how much higher.
Without that data, i can't really say anything at all.
Every piece of research i've ever seen basically says "intuition is wrong here, they don't actually assault people at a higher rate".
IE people who repeatedly are arrested for dealing drugs are not likely to have a higher rate of assaulting people while driving ubers.
But, again, i'm data driven on this, if we have data/research, and the scientific consensus is that they are worse, and significantly worse, than yeah, maybe it's worth doing something.
From what i know, most of this is driven by gut feelings and politics, and not actual data.
- rantanplan 10y agoFair answer. And another one a bit more provocative :D You alleged above that your parent commenter would think differently if the driver was a friend of theirs. If the passenger/client was a friend of yours and you knew the driver had priors, would you advise them against getting into the car or not?
