if you can avoid driving, please do. I hate hearing stories like this, that seem so easy to avoid, especially for people who are elderly or high risk by nature. i understand many people are doing it to make ends meet, and i feel for those people! it's a tough time. would recommend applying for unemployment to at least get something.
The risk is greater then the benefit and it's not just about Covid but also the violence we have witnessed. A white driver was beaten in the Bronx because of his color and he wasn't a spring chicken to defend himself.
I hate driving right now but have to in order to make ends meet, its a sucky time.
Oof. Horrible. Stay safe everyone 😞
Very sad. My condolences and thoughts and prayers go out to her family, friends and riders! Good Luck To All!
