In a weird incident, a Lyft driver kicked out a passenger on the side of a busy highway in the US before abusing him.?
According to a news report, the passenger was going home from Nashville international airport when the incident took place. The passenger Aaron Swetland recorded the whole incident in a video that is now going viral.?
Aaron Swetland told a local news channel that there had been a sudden "change in tone, in attitude" of the driver when he urged her to slow down the speed, Newsweek reported.
In the video, Aaron Swetland can be heard asking the driver to go under the speed limit but the female driver seemed to be in no mood to follow the instruction. She rather replies back saying she wants to go at the same speed.?
At the moment when she realised that she is being recorded, she lost her temper and tried to snatch the passenger's phone and started abusing him.?
¡°You think I¡¯m gonna deal with that? I got it all on camera too, everything!¡± The woman can be heard yelling before driving off, leaving the passenger behind.
Lyft responded to the incident and issued a statement with News4 Nashville saying the driver in question has been suspended. ¡°Safety is fundamental to Lyft, and the incident shown in the video is concerning. We have reached out to the rider to offer our support and have suspended the driver¡¯s account pending a complete investigation,¡± the company said.
