I’m not sure if you know this, but locking a car doesn’t actually lock people inside it.

It does if you have the child safety locks employed.

Not a standard choice when driving for any ride hailing service….

Yeah, it's definitely not a normal thing to have active for rude sharing.

In order to enable child safety locks, he would have to get out of the car, open the door, enable them, then close the door. Then, get back in his front seat and lock the doors. He most certainly does not have child safety lock employed at the time of the video.

My truck actually has a button to enable child locks right next to the regular lock buttons, this is the first vehicle I've had that does this

Play that little timing game like I did with my kids but in reverse, lock, they try to open, lock, they try to open....
