   6 years ago in  New York approves Uber and Lyft surcharges

  Will this money really be used to combat congestion?  or is it just a made-up justification?  

  or are they saying that the economics of raising the fares will naturally control congestion?

   6 years ago in  Lyft has been around longer than Uber. History Lesson.

  Yep.  From Wikipedia.

  In May 2012, Zimride announced Lyft, an app that allows users to request a driver immediately and get a ride anywhere.^[30] The company vets each driver with a thorough interview process and criminal check, and users pay for the ride with a donation, which is approximately 30% less than a cab fare.^[31][32]

   7 years ago in  Uber really should have an "opt-out" option for small talk...

  You should do what I do. You can pretend to be asleep, pretend to be on the phone (the phone up to the ear), or have your headset in the ears (music optional).

  Yeah, sure.  So it's like a "Do not Disturb" signs on those hotel doors.

   6 years ago in  Scam? I requested a Lyft the other day, and the driver saw me, and drove away. The app registered that he had "arrived" and I was charged a "no show" fee.

  Yeah, this is actually a thing.

  Drivers do this when they don't like you.  Some drivers mentioned in this thread that for annoying customers whom they plan to cancel, they would drive by and see if they can get a no-show fee.

  My driver told me he gets lots of texts from people telling him to hurry up (upon pickup). Is this really true?
