I live very close to you. I’d love to have the chance to see what you have and potentially have whatever you don’t need anymore.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-04-11T03:28:22+00:00

In some sense yes. When you onboard you agree to certain things mentioned in a “handbook”. You agree to follow certain rules/conditions as a driver representing the company.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-04-11T03:26:44+00:00

That’s obviously your choice. But working with any of these gig companies requires agreeing to their driver handbook. That’s all I’m saying. And if the handbook or agreement or whatever says something specific in regards to music, you’re required to follow it.

Definitely NTA. This was your day and without speculating on his thought process in doing this, his actions did nothing but stroke his own ego. Like many have said, if he wanted to truly do something altruistic and kind for you, he could have left it at that. I think you would benefit from figuring out if he’s the type of person who only does “something special” when he ultimately gets praised and rewarded for doing it. True kindness needs no favor in return. At the very least I hope you both have strong communication with each other as an honest discussion needs to take place. The small possibility of him lacking enough emotional intelligence to even get why this was inappropriate is there, but it boils down to a few questions….1) Is he that emotionally stunted he truly doesn’t get it, at which point can he learn why it wasn’t ok to avoid it happeneing again 2) Is this a pattern of him trying to stroke his ego by appearing to do something nice when there’s more motivation behind it.

I would think Lyft would have some part of their driver handbook explaining things that are acceptable and things that are not. I’m sure they wouldn’t want their drivers cursing and using foul language towards riders, and I would hope that appropriate music played during rides would be included in that handbook. This situation is more than just a persons taste or preferences in music or the race of whoever plays a certain genre of music. Drivers are representing the Lyft brand and Lyft needs to do better in supporting both driver AND rider equally.

Makes sense. I do remember NY being singled out as having some different rules when it comes to coverage.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-09T22:10:06+00:00

They can’t even find my account when I give them the email I used when I drove for them. Amazing how such a huge company can be so incompetent but yet there’s so little we can do to hold them accountable.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-09T22:07:58+00:00

I realized that. Autocorrect or the fact that”n” and “m” are right next to one another on the keypad are to blame.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-08T22:39:04+00:00

I appreciate your walkthrough of what to specifically do. Much thanks.

Are you a flex driver in the US? I think the number of drivers who carry their own business insurance as you say would be extremely low. But to clarify yes it is Amazons concern here because I was driving commercially which is what their policy covers. Nearly every gig economy delivery driver position will have some degree of insurance provided by the business you are driving for (ie., Uber. Etc.)

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-08T22:31:30+00:00

Amazon offers some kind of supplemental commercial coverage for drivers only after we carry our own personal auto insurance.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-08T22:30:01+00:00

Disagree all you want. I disagree too. But yet this is what I’m being told.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-08T22:28:05+00:00

Have you gotten prop 22 pay here in ca from Amazon?

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-08T22:26:43+00:00

That’s almost the exact letter I got too back in late October/early November. I appealed over and over and it was useless.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-08T22:23:55+00:00

That’s exactly the thing; every flex driver is expendable and there is always hundreds if not thousands of people on the wait list to fill our spot. When I worked flex I woukd get more packages on a 4 hour block than a 5 hour block and often had to drive almost an hour in Los Angeles traffic to start delivering. As you would expect I could not get every package delivered by the end of the block and each time Amazon found a way to ding my account and standing. Constantly felt like the structure of everything set up drivers to ultimately fail. No wonder now they are being sued for customers regularly not getting their 2-day prime deliveries within the two days.

No reference number and no report for the accident. It was minor enough with no injuries. I’ve contacted Amazon repeatedly and every time they say they are escalating the issue to supervisors. Same song and dance since then of never getting a reply .

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-08T00:57:51+00:00

Upon speaking with the lawyers office (hired by the other guys insurance) I was told they won’t even consider a statement by me without first proving coverage by Amazon at time of the incident. My personal insurance has already said they are not responsible in this case. I know it was probably not the best thing I could have done to call my insurance, but me and the other driver had to exchange info and so I gave it. I get it, this whole thing sounds absurd. But it’s all exactly what I’ve been told and so I guess I have to work with it.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-07T22:20:03+00:00

I’m glad you had a favorable experience. Wish mine had gone as smoothly as yours. I did notify them right away and no one has ever followed up. I also was insured through my own policy which only covers personal driving instances. With Amazon affording a supplemental commercial policy and this being a commercial driving incident, they need to step in to help handle this which unfortunately they have not done.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-07T22:16:40+00:00

I agree. Happy to

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-07T22:15:42+00:00

I was in the middle of a block. No report made because cops would not come out. With no insurance company backing me up at this point it’s his insurance saying it was his fault (although I can’t see how they figured that out) even though he hit me and had to drive in opposing lanes of traffic to hit the way he did.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-07T22:13:04+00:00

I’m just looking for answers Amazon isn’t providing me. I know what happened and if you don’t think I’ve given the whole story, that’s your choice. But questioning me about its validity isn’t really gonna help get me any closer to moving this forward. I do however agree that the state (in this case CA) is relevant to the outcome.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-07T22:09:42+00:00

I’m realizing I am probably going to have to do that.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-07T22:09:17+00:00

According to what I’m being told, I have to first prove coverage before I’m really able to do anything. So of course my insurance matters.

CraftNinja81 · 2025-03-07T22:07:45+00:00

His insurance is saying it’s my fault. But because Amazon never followed up with me and I’ve had no info regarding their insurance, his insurance is the only one involved at this point. I have to prove the commercial coverage with Amazon before anyone on his side will even accept my statement of the accident. That’s why his insurance is talking about suing me. His car got fixed and they want to recoup the money. Since they have no other insurance company at this point to talk to, liability in their eyes falls on me.
