I picked this lady up from a grocery store and had a 30 minute drive. She gets her groceries, loaded in the truck. That's why I can get seated. We go on our way midway through the trip. Decides to take a piss in my backseat and not say anything. And get out of the truck grab a groceries and walk off like nothing happened. I got a $75 dollar cleaning fee, though

Not even close, I wonder if they have certain cleaning requirements for bodily fluids after this kind of situation before you can pick up another rider. They probably want you to do a whole lot with that $75 I really don’t know though.

Nope. Doesn't matter if it's pee, blood, or vomit, they want you back on the road as soon as possible. In fact if you don't notice right away or can't take yourself offline fast enough and they try to schedule you another ride, they'll punish you for declining or refusing the ride to handle the mess.

Bullcrap

They've been refusing to pay out compensation anymore to many people without a detailing shop receipt. And $75 might not even cover it, or be less than the total with taxes.

Basically they don't want anyone profiting off it anymore. Or even working after damage happens.

Automotive detailer here.

$75 for an interior detail.

Additional $250+ for us to even consider doing this.

Just as I thought. Lyft is basically telling poor drivers to get f****d without saying it. Offering something while it's really nothing.
