If uber drivers are being assaulted its absolutely an uber problem. Less people will want to work for uber if they feel unsafe. If people are being assaulted harassed oh and shot on the T its a T problem ending in less people will want to ride it. See how that works? I mean just look at the litigious society we live in we blame corporations and companies for everything its never the individuals fault. The T has a reputation for violence and harassment that is 100% a problem for them
