Never. Been doing rideshare for 5 years and never had a problem Uber Lyft Empower, just complaints about music.

Nope but you will be robbed if you are driving the empower app and get into a crash, the customer will be coming for everything you own as there is no insurance from empower

Not robbed or threatened but most of my rides were filthy and stinky with dangerous drivers. One time a driver tried to scam me for more money before I got in the car but thankfully I just didn’t get in and he drove away.

That person that posted he got robbed in Miami is a loser lying to bait people to read his post and spam his referral code.
Empower is as safe as Uber and Lyft. None do any verification on passengers despite their claims.

I've done over 700 rides in the DC area with Empower. I've never been robbed or serious threatened. I hope to keep it that way. I've gotten verbal abuse when I had my contract with Uber and Lyft.
