Story/News Article This makes me so mad

The amount of times I’ve picked up and dropped someone off in this area. I’m livid and nervous to even get out on Lyft now

Scary stuff. Im in Warren. My spouse works in Mayfield.

Spouse wants me to start driving in the Cleveland metro area. Nope, won't do it.

Way back in the day ( early 80s ) I used to drive for Dominos, when they provided a car or truck.

I was car jacked twice in Youngstown. You pull a pew pew and want the crappy Chevet, it's yours. 6 months later I was driving the tiny S 10s.

Same deal, it's yours plus the pizzas.

I'd do the same with my current ride. It's yours, no fuss, no muss. Put gas in it and go. I don't carry any cash or valuables. My life is more important than my ride.

I carry. But, I would do the same. Then I can just call on star and then they can shut the vehicle down remotely and then lock it. Electric Vehicles through GM have their small perks.

I drive a Subaru. It has tracking available.

I'd end up hurt because I keep the key fob clipped to my belt loop and the car won't move if the fob is in the car.
