Is it wrong for the girl to go meet up with a man instead of the man going to the woman for the first time?

My best friend has met this guy online. They live in the same state but a different city, they want to see each other but her guy is making her go to him first instead of him coming to her. He told her he would take care of her going there and back, he would call an uber for her. I think it's wrong because he knows she can't drive and her parents are strict but he is still insisting. He told her the reason he wants her to come is because he knows more places to go in his area and he won't know anything if he comes to her. Part of me is afraid for her because what if he ditches her or even worse hurts her. I offered to come with but she doesn't want me to ☹️ can you ladies offer any advice or knock some sense into her head? Lol
