I hate this, but unfortunately I've got to come since he is my supervisor. It would damage my assessment if I don't. I hate it.

Unfortunate that this would be considered a career limiting decision if you did not go. I am sorry to hear you are in such a situation. It is a shame your supervisor was not more supportive or understanding. Are you able to make a little white lie and say something important and critical has come up?
I definitely understand the worry about personal safety. Yep. This too would make me terribly anxious - especially having to use Uber or a cab. I wonder though if you could not car pool with a coworker. I am assuming they are aware of your transportation difficulties. Yes, I hate being dependent on people but I think this is a situation where I would have to put that aside.
Whatever you choose to do, ensure that it is right for you and not for someone else please.
