Quraishi also said the owner's name shown on the screen was different and alleged that the driver later made her speak to another person, claiming he was the owner.

She said they called the police and went to a police station, where they were told they could return the next day to file an FIR. She alleged that the driver resumed demanding money after they left the police cabin.

According to Quraishi, they could not record the incident inside the police station as officers had strictly prohibited them from making videos there.

She said they eventually paid ₹3,000 and later found that the vehicle's insurance had expired. She appealed to Quick Ride to train its drivers and said, "They cannot harass anyone on the road."
