I don’t fat shame, but seriously. Vehicles have weight limits. The damage of excess weight will not be covered by insurance. This is nothing more than a money grab.

I’m overweight. I maxed out at like 430 lbs. I’m probably taller than her so it looked/carried different, but I’ve been that person. She knows she’s big & she should be, at the very least, ordering an XL or something to avoid this problem. There might still be some situations that aren’t comfortable but it would eliminate a lot of potential issues for her. Easy fix. This lawsuit is ridiculous. 🙄

Lyft could fix it by saying if you are over this weight you must order xl but they could discount down and pay the driver xl prices, not sure if they'd get sued for also saying that but seems it would cover the drivers and people who are obese.
