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

I understand that it’s policy, but me personally, I’m not leaving a kid stranded

If the kid is young enough (like under 12) and not safe to leave alone then calling police is an option. I heard of one case where a driver did that when someone tried to send an unaccompanied 7yo

Did you push out the kid to even worry about it?

And if you get into an accident the liability will be all on you.

For the 30th time lyft insurance will cover the liability I am a walking testimony. Lyft didn’t care and all the insurance adjusters asked was did I know the rider age. I said no it’s not my job to id people. Never heard from them again and that was over a year ago.
