If Uber vetted the customers, drivers shouldn't have to vet them out again. Then, request a new ride when you’re ready to go to your next destination.The Lyft app allows passengers with accessibility needs to enable Access Mode. I mean, all they need is a parents' credit card number.Lmao Uber & Lyft policy riders under 18 must be accompanied by someone over 18. Uber doesn't check this as part of the background check.
Additionally, the minor rider/ parent it's putting themselves at risk because any accidents they will not be covered.I agree. In regions where Access Mode is enabled, vehicles specially outfitted to accommodate wheelchairs will receive ride requests instead of standard vehicles.In regions where Access Mode is not available, drivers are still required by law and Lyft’s policy to transport riders who use foldable mobility devices. I personally feel that older kids should be able to ride, but until parents complain... it will not change. Oh I remember, because I get bombarded with these notifications monthly to ensure we transport the emotional support poodles so they do not get sued. Of course they can, right? just a normal person), and you are all set. Rideshare with Lyft.
Nothing worse then driving 10/20 min to pick up a rider only to find a minor (late at night in a dark or bad are) or parent with no car seat (at an airport or a parent leaving the ER with a sick child). I personally wouldn't have put my child alone on a plane either, for the surrounded by strangers reason, and you just never know who is there and what the intentions are. Take responsibity and drive them yourself.That is a ridiculous response, grow up and stop acting like a childAnd the Jerk Off of the year award to Mr No Brains....I'd be happy to babysit if the the surge is pegged at 2.5x.
I will say there are some drivers out there that will do it because the kid is in a dark or bad area or because you are trying to get a sick kid home from doctors or ER. Daycare, airlines, etc. I will not pick kids up.As a driver I always get suspicious if the pickup is a minor or a third party, and I will call the requester for clarification, which, certainly in the case of a minor, I will cancel.But the tip is from the requestor and an adult.
I am not breaking the terms of using the Uber account as I am the one with the account and credite card. My kids have taken taxis themselves. Now, if there was a parent there... then maybe.I have been taking cabs since I was 12 on my own... mass transit since I was 11. I don't see the problem with giving teenagers rides. As a driver I hate this situation.
I'm an Uber & Lyft driver I'll accept everyone of the stupid parents ride requests they should read the terms for riders, so when their kid can't provide id showing they're 18 I'll get the cancellation fee every time. 7 year olds getting rides without an adult may sound like a burden, but come on, 13+ getting rides should be a thing. They obviously didnt care about sending their young child with a stranger in the first place and obviously they didnt care about their toddler getting into a strangers car with no car seat. The rules are actually different for each company: Uber – Account holders must be 18 or over and CANNOT request a ride for riders under 18 unless accompanied by the account holder making the request. yes, i know that.and it doesnt' look like uber tries too hard to stop people from doing it. Why cant we all just be responsible? It would also make Uber and Lyft safer with better checks. I was trying to make a joke. Although that is a big factor. Safe too.No, unfortunately that is not legit.
Let them order the Uber themselves.Sorry. gas, and a possible good ride with someone that tips. And I’d say why not Uber. Absolutely ridiculous!!!Wow. or an Uncle? How rampant is this where the parents just use Uber for their kids knowingly or unknowingly? gas, and a possible good ride with someone that tips.
