This startling incident captures a passenger jumping out of a moving taxi to reportedly dodge a £1.40 fare.
Strange CCTV footage reveals the Uber’s back door swinging open as it drove down the street.
The passenger appeared to carefully exit the vehicle, landing with her feet already in motion to prevent herself from falling.
But the driver was going too fast for her to land steadily on her feet.
She tumbled onto the tarmac, rolled over, and skidded to a stop moments later.
She then picked herself up and hobbled off as a passing biker stopped to ask if she was okay.
The bizarre scenes unfolded on 3 June in Itapetininga, west of São Paulo, Brazil.
The taxi driver told police that the ride had been requested with cash as the selected payment method.
On the way to the destination in the city centre, the passenger gave a different name from the one the ride had been booked under.
She added that she did not have the cash, prompting the driver to tell her they would have to go to the police to sort the matter out.
En route to the police station, the passenger opened the door and jumped out of the moving car.
The taxi driver – according to her testimony – stopped, got out, and tried to talk to the passenger.
The woman allegedly told her she would pay the fare – £1.38 (10.40 BRL) – via a transfer later on and asked for her account details.
A local media source told What’s The Jam: “At the end of the day, she paid the driver.”
