China's top ride-hailing company introduced a 'curfew' for women after riders were killed. It's being forced to backtrack

Didi Chuxing earlier this week announced it would resume its controversial carpooling service, Hitch, for the first time since taking it offline last year following the killings of two female passengers. In a bid to improve passenger safety, it said it would only let women book rides until 8:00 p.m., while men could use the platform until 11:00 p.m.Following a huge backlash on Chinese social media, the company has backpedaled fast.

Didi has been treading carefully since last year, when it was forced to suspend Hitch after two female riders were killed in four months. The company spokesperson said Friday that its 8:00 p.m. cutoff for women was because its data showed that"sex-related complaints, predominantly from women users" are 45% higher between then and 11:00 p.m.
