That just shows you Uber is an immature technology. It shouldn't rely on a driver pushing a "trip finished" button. Either the trip auto-terminates because the GPS has determined you are at your location, or the user should terminate the trip at destination by paying.
This whole: "pay upfront whatever happens" is a joke.
