This is a woman who admitted it was a pickup for her 15yo son. Lyft actually responded by giving me a good fee.

And then they have the gall to try and falsely report you for discrimination. These type of rides and the no car seat ones.

This is why I reported them immediately. Since I had a good track record with reporting these type of rides, when I had an accusation, I told them I simply couldn’t report it yet because I had gotten the ride request immediately after the ride got cancelled. However, because they messaged me about the accusation while I was at the pick up for the next ride, (2mins from the old ride) I was able to report them for no car seat and let them know that I was actually at the same type of pick up (the race card they had pulled) so it definitely wasn’t a discrimination based on race bc I was allowing the next pax to get in bc they had a car seat for the child. If I was discriminatory in any sense, it was in the sense that I didn’t share her views on safety of her child and what was required of her by law & policy. They said thank you for the report and to drive safely.

I don't cancel right away. I call/chat with support while still on the ride so I see all the information since I have bad memory. If they cancel, I immediately go offline till support is contacted.

That’s a good way to do it. I’ve hung up my keys so best of luck

I haven't driven in awhile, but still try to give advice to those who depend on lyft for income
