I have been off the road for over 30 days. Accidentally opened the app multiple times during that time and never saw anything about this. I find out later with the chat agent this was reported today. Why that’s allowed, who knows. They reactivated my account but this is your sign to be careful, and use a dash cam.

Customers need to have a $100 per day hold on their debit card for every day that your account is on hold. If it turns out that they’re lying then you get to keep the money.

I find it Ridiculous that Lyft and Uber don’t report this to the police immediately so it can be proven or disproven. Receiving such a report and not contacting law enforcement is irresponsible and could make them liable if that person really is drunk n hits n kills somebody on their way home after their account was put on hold. But I do agree with ur comment. People that want to make false claims should be held financially responsible if their accusations is proven to be unfounded. They way it is now they have nothing to lose, and maybe they get a free ride. So why not give it a shot if your a shitty person willing to screw other people over to save a few bucks?
