Heavily pregnant Nottinghamshire woman 'kicked out of Uber and left stranded' on hottest day ever

A heavily pregnant woman claims she was left "stranded" with her partner on a busy road on Nottingham's hottest day after they were kicked out of a taxi. The incident happened when Kayleigh Kennedy, who is seven months pregnant, ordered an Uber to her home address through the app.

The 20-year-old had been to Queen's Medical Centre for a regular scan on Tuesday, July 19. Ms Kennedy decided to take the bus to the city centre and ordered a lift to her home address in Bingham to avoid the heat.

A driver picked Ms Kennedy and her partner from Friar Lane, in Nottingham city centre at around 5pm. She added: "It was way too hot to travel by bus."
