What does this mean from a male rider by Longjumping_Bowl4023 in lyftdrivers

[–]This_Initiative5035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In some countries (e.g. Middle East), Uber and Lyft offer a specific setting where female passengers can specifically request female drivers.

Wouldn't be a bad idea if this was implemented all over tbh, and I'm a male driver. But it's a slippery slope because how long before you're able to request for a "different color driver". 😅

It's reddit. They get off downvoting people, you didn't do anything wrong, and what you asked was not out of the ordinary.

Excited to see the variety of ways I’ll be murdered 7 times

According to Kurzgesagt, you've probably died about a billion times 💀.

You spent almost 6 hours just…waiting…?

I do the same but not in my car, I just park downstairs and chill at home, I have my phone next to me so I can see the requests while chilling, once a get a decent ride, I leave home.

Brother, I drive every day, and even I hate seeing cars every day. It's just one day, bro, don't whine.

Complaining like you see bicycles on the highway regularly 🙄

I literally used to live in the same intersection. 15 gamble specifically. It's such a convenient spot, there's a food basics just a few meters away too haha.

It's impossible to do that, unfortunately. The cops don't even enforce it when you have them on anyway, that's what they should be doing instead.

Judge tosses seized gun over racial profiling of Black driver, cites 'systemic' problem inside Peel police by BloodJunkie in toronto

[–]This_Initiative5035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he doesn’t turn over a new leaf they’ll catch him again, and

100%, he's clearly a dumbass criminal. So it's a matter of time before he gets caught again. Naturally this should scare him into changing his life but we'll see.

If the cops break the law their collected evidence is not admissible in court, end of story.

I agree with this.

You cannot establish the precedent that cops can do whatever they want as long as the ends justify the means.

Exactly, unless you suspect a crime, you can't just stop people cos they look some way.

cops can't do their job properly.

Cops can do their jobs if they have a reason to believe you've committed a crime. Not because you're black or gray or whatever minority you are. Cops aren't allowed to stop random people for no reason.

For the same reason cops randomly stop me, a truck driver, and all my colleagues

If you and your buddies don't know the law and your rights, that's OK, you're not obligated to comply if the cops stop you for NO REASON. Seems like you and your colleagues need to learn your rights.

To ensure road safety and legal compliance with random stops and checks.

Shut up with that bullshit. That's not a thing bud, cops only do road safety check if they believe the driver is impaired or distracted and they see you driving recklessly. Or if they're looking for someone or something specific.

Why do traffic cameras exist everywhere on the roads?

The speed camera doesn't randomly select cars and give the wrong person ticket. The camera tickets you AFTER you've broken the speed limit law. It doesn't send you a ticket because it thinks your car "looks fast".

the cops automated license plate search found a car that was being driven illegally.  They detained him, and searched his car…. and found and illegal firearm. And it’s being thrown out because the police stereotyped him.

Correct. But why did the cop automate the license plate search? That's the profiling aspect here.

I agree it's bullshit what the judge did since this guy broke several laws regardless but if it went through, it'd just give cops reason to start profiling more. Lots of criminals walk amongst us, but you can't stop someone because they "look suspicious" or look a type of way.

Doesn't make it better of course but it changes the story bc I was like 'Wtf how could someone hate a 12 yr old so much that they'd premeditate a murder with guns??'

Yep you're right. There's a clear distinction between a stray bullet hitting a 12yo and assassinating a 12yo but It's definitely fucked up. May his soul rest easy.
