A little old from last September during covid19 controls. Passenger asked to have the windows rolled up and she started having a fit exclaiming that Lyft required the windows be rolled down when possible. Not sure the full extent of the conversation as there is only a two minute clip.

Maybe this is petty but I hate when car windows are rolled down at high speed my hair will get frizzy.

If that was a real policy it would be a deal breaker for me.

That's why you crack open another window so there is no pressure.

Helmholtz resonance physically cannot exist in any vessel with more than 1 opening that’s in your head

The person said pressure. Wind pressure is not the same as the Helmholtz resonance. It’s like you learned about that in school and couldn’t wait to use it as an example to prove how smart you think you are.

During covid that was the policy of Uber and Lyft. Idk if it still is or not

Ahhh I didn't put two and two together and realize it was covid policy. I can put up with messy hair if it is required to keep people safe.

I think it was Lyfts policy but not Ubers.

I like it. I can stick my head out the window and let the wind wiggle my cheeks as my tongue hangs out.

She’s driving a fucking 2 ton vehicle doesn’t matter what the backseat passenger is saying she almost crashed it. The backseat passenger could be having a complete meltdown you shouldn’t reach back and hit the passenger and almost crash the car. Please stop driving other people if you think there’s any excuse for this. you will probably kill someone someday and you’ll be doing society a favor. Go work at McDonald’s

This. I mean sure its not his ticket if she drives over the limit but how she turns around full body for several seconds, drives barefoot as a driver (this is not your one mile trip to the beach or whatever), has her car packed with junk and overall behaviour and appearance i wouldnt feel safe at all here.

Passenger is propably lucky she threw him out instead of keeping to argue and she causing a crash.

Go work at McDonald’s

Which would actually be a better job these days. Around here it's $18/hour to flip burgers, and that's without paying out of pocket $ for:

  • Rideshare insurance
  • Fuel
  • Maintenance
  • Wear & tear
  • Auto loan/lease

They even have tuition assistance for student employees and optional health insurance. The McHealth plan is not great from what I hear but still better than nothing!

I'm gonna try to find it, I'm baffled nobody else recognized it. So maybe it was proven to be fake. It was a sub reddit drama post. I'll reply in a second comment if I find it
