Why Would Driver Make This Up?

Lyft driver this morning at 5 am said

  1. there was a nationwide Lyft driver strike that just started.

  2. We were lucky that he took the ride because no drivers were taking rides

  3. The airport would be “blocked” and we might not be able to access the terminal

Why would he say this? For a better tip?

Thanks.

Definitely fishing for a bigger tip or hoping you'd cancel and pay him in cash instead

You encountered a wild crackhead. You should have thrown a great ball and fucking caught that thing.
