An Uber or Lyft driver who forces someone from a car will put his or her hands on the passenger, to kick the person out of the vehicle. The Uber or Lyft driver is in control of the vehicle, and can stop that car at any time to try to kick someone out of the car.

Yes, an Uber driver has the right to terminate a ride and ask you to leave the vehicle if you violate Uber's Community Guidelines or if they feel their safety is at risk. Common reasons for being "kicked out" include aggressive or harassing behavior, making inappropriate physical contact, or using discriminatory language. Drivers can also end a trip if a passenger is excessively intoxicated to the point of being rowdy or being a vomiting risk, or if they attempt to smoke, vape, or consume illegal drugs inside the car. Violating vehicle capacity (trying to fit 5 people in a 4-passenger car) or bringing a pet that isn't a service animal without prior consent are also valid grounds for a driver to pull over and end the ride. In most cases, the driver is instructed to find a safe, well-lit public area to drop you off. If you are asked to leave, it is best to comply quietly and report the incident through the app later; refusing to leave can lead to a permanent ban from the platform and, in extreme cases, law enforcement involvement for trespassing or disorderly conduct.
