I'm a clean, courteous person, I didn't do anything to offend the psychopath driver. The moment he saw me, he seemed enraged. I even had to walk to the car, he just parked at random and waited. At first glance he looks like a white guy, I hadn't realized he was Turkish yet. Once I heard his thick accent, I assumed his aggressive gestures, and disproportional tone could be a cultural thing. But then he progressively got ruder, and more hostile. He snapped at me when I asked which direction he was taking. He did a gesture like he wanted to slap me. I didn't feel safe, and he knew I had motion sickness, (because I told him when I asked if I could put the window down at the beginning of the ride.. he said yes, then once I did.. he put the window up) then drove chaotically, blasted an audio (about a man that offed himself) and started to sway the car back and forth while at a red light. He was acting like he didn't want me in his car. So, as soon as I knew where I was, I politely asked if I could be dropped off there, due to motion sickness. I told him I wouldn't cancel the ride so he could continue the route, and still get paid. He raged, refused to let me out, and started speeding. Then eventually came to his senses and decided to let me out but for some reason.. he turned and drove farther than necessary and went into a parking lot. I politely thanked him, and again assured him I wouldn't cancel the ride, so he would still get paid. He screamed at me, saying he dgaf about the job, has a tesla, doesn't need money etc. I walked away, it seemed he parked at that awkward location just to yell at me. Even after walking away he was screaming alone in the parking lot. Eventually he sped past me. I contacted Lyft right after this and they brushed me off on the app. So, I called them, and the agent was dismissive about my racism claims but said I wouldn't be charged for the ride, and someone would call me to take my report about the incident in more detail. No one ever called, and I was charged for the ride. When I emailed them, about this, they ignored me. **** Be careful with these services, you don't know who's car you're getting into, and what they're capable of. If something happens to you, Lyft will not care.
