Nashville Lyft Driver Has Meltdown over Gay Pride; Says Lyft Will Not Use Him to “Spread the Gay Agenda”
Earlier this week, Lyft announced that it’s Amp light will display rainbow colors for a period of time to celebrate LGBT Pride Month celebrations in each city it operates. Nashville Lyft drivers will see their Amp show rainbow colors June 23 – 25, to coincide with Nashville Pride. A Nashville driver says he will not be use to “spread the gay agenda” of Lyft. Nashville Lyft Driver Brian Ward is having no part in the celebration of equality and acceptance of others, and refuses to use it during Pride weekend,…
Lyft Passenger Banned for being “just one of those women where she knows it all”, “alpha female”, “biggest most arrogant, conceited bitch”, According to Driver Shawn Reed. But Was She?
Nashville Lyft Driver Shawn Reed describes a passenger as “just one of those women where she knows it all, alpha female”; “the biggest most arrogant, conceited bitch”. What brought about this description of a passenger by her driver? Imagine if you’re a person that is sensitive to loud noises & bright lights – maybe you just have a headache, and you just want to get home. To be safe, you request a Lyft. The Lyft app tells you when the driver is arriving, and despite that, the driver has sent…
Nashville Uber/Lyft Driver Found Parked in Traffic, Asleep at Wheel, Arrested for DUI
Nashville Uber/Lyft Driver Christopher Redman has an upcoming court date on June 29th, to answer to charges that occurred a few weeks ago, on 02/23. Those charges include DUI & Implied Consent. He continues to drive and carry passengers, despite the charge, and continues to drink at bars and post about it on social media. So what was he doing in the hours before that he became so drunk that he (reportedly) passed out at the wheel in the middle of traffic on West End Ave? It seems that prior…
Uber Nashville Driver Posts Photo of Drunken, Passed Out Passenger, Abandons Him in Grass.
What do you do if you’re an Uber driver in Nashville, and your passenger is so drunk that after a twenty minute ride he has no idea where he’s going? Well, ideally you’d take him to the address he put as his destination in the pax app, assuming he was coherent enough to request an Uber, that much should, at least, be correct. What did new Uber Nashville driver Chris Jamison do? Every story has two sides, and according to his post on social media this morning, where he posted…
Uber Driver Cedric Burns Still Raging About “Privileged, Entitled Millennials” Not Tipping for UberEats; Drivers like Michael DeArmond still refusing to deliver to door
In November, we told you about Nashville Uber Driver Cedric Burns, who was going on rants and tirades about customers not tipping him for UberEats deliveries, despite Uber telling customers that tipping is not expected or required for this service. In the previous story we told you about drivers who were simply keeping the food of customers who would not tip them, because they were only delivering to the curbside and refusing to bring it to the customer’s door – which is also a directive of how to deliver, by…
Uber Driver James Henneberg is “bothered” by the “transgender thing”; Refuses to be Paired with Gay Couple in Future; Admits to Lying
Uber Driver James Henneberg isn’t having a good week, as we have received multiple tips from other drivers about him. Generally when this happens we assume it’s just someone with a grudge and we have to work harder to verify the source; however in this case we’ve received the same information from multiple sources each time. We are learning more about the character of James Henneberg, in reference to an incident that happened a few days before Christmas. Despite all we’ve learned in the past few days, Henneberg continues to…
Uber Driver James Henneberg Uses Military Service/Disability Status to Solicit Tips
After seeing our story about Uber driver James Henneberg’s distracted driving yesterday, an alert driver sent us a tip with the sign that Henneberg has in his car that he uses to solicit tips from passengers. While Uber drivers are allowed to accept/solicit tips, having a sign with this much explanation and, in our opinion, outright “begging” goes beyond the standard of what we’ve seen in any Uber or Lyft vehicle before. The sign explains (in way too may words) about the Drivers rating system (Tip: Passengers don’t want to…
Nashville Uber/Lyft Drivers Refuse Fast Food Stops
Previously, we’ve told you about the Uber Driver who refused to stop at Krystal’s for a rider, UberEATS drivers that keep food for themselves, and a Lyft Driver who ABANDONED their passenger for not buying him pizza during a fast food stop. It’s been a year since those stories, so we wondered if things had changed. Were drivers still denying passengers stops for food? We know that both ride-share companies tell their passengers that these stops are perfectly normal, and they even compensate the drivers for the time spent waiting…
From the view of an Uber: Nashville Party Wagon Hoe-Down
Uber Driver David Aziz sent the following footage, taken in downtown Nashville. When we call this a ‘hoe-down’ it’s not just a random description. You’ll see once you press play. Just when you think you’ve seen every variation of bridesmaids parties in the downtown tourist area, you happen up on one with a 20 seat wagon pulled by a John Deere tractor. This could almost be a precursor to Girl’s Gone Wild video shoot, and at cost of $500 for a two-hour ride, and you have to BYOB, we suppose…
