As an aside for the subject of women drivers... last fall, I had a Muslim woman as my Uber driver for a ride. She said that she makes a point of picking up female passengers with less than five-star ratings. She thinks a lot of male Uber drivers will downrate female passengers in unfair ways, and a lot of Uber drivers in general won't give rides to passengers who have had bad ratings.
- amyjess 11y agoAs a woman who uses Lyft often, I can confirm that I've been treated like shit by a number of drivers in ways that I can't imagine a man would be treated. Stuff like how they would park a block away from me and make me walk the whole way to their cars (invariably, the people who do this are men who come from countries where women's rights are unheard of). I'm at the point where I'm seriously upset that Lyft doesn't allow women to specifically request a female driver. Hell, I'd be willing to pay extra to guarantee that my driver be a woman.
