How would uber know? They can’t unless someone reports the driver or gives them a poor rating.

Well there are two competing factors, one of which you pointed out--not every woman who experiences harassment reports it. The other which may be less obvious is that the people who behave this way tend to do so not only repeatedly but frequently. Eventually they may harass the wrong woman and get reported. Without knowing the numbers I can't speculate more about whether lyft knew about the driver who harassed me.
