Yes because after kidnapping you are always allowed to leave the vehicle you were kidnapped with and continue with your day.

Sorry, but no.

If you got into an Uber and they took you to some completely different place, many km away from your destination, and didn't let you get out of the vehicle until they got there, would you not say that they kidnapped you? Would you not be tempted to call the police and press charges, even if they did tell you that they would let you go out once they reached their destination?

		You do understand how a train works? * It has tracks so it cannot go anywhere it wants to go * It can only let passengers go at certain places, these are called stations So no, I would not compare it to a random Uber driver that takes me somewhere random on a whim. I wouldn't call the police if an Uber took me on a different road if the original road was closed. Etc. Please start making sense, thank you. I'm done.

If you want to continue the analogy via consequences, it's not a defense to kidnapping to say you let them go at the end.

For it to be a kidnapping there needs to be a realistic threat you will not be let go. Have a nice day.

		Just so you know I was offended at the use of the term kidnapping from the article but for different reasons.
