Blanding was recording the encounter.
The backstory:
At first, the driver told Blanding she wouldn’t fit in his sedan.
He added that he would refund the ride so she wouldn’t be charged.
Blanding says she could have fit.
The Video:
“I’ve been in cars smaller than that,” she told FOX 2.
“I just want them to know that it hurt my feelings.”
Blanding has retained attorneys Jonathan Marko and Zach Runyan to sue for discrimination.
He said weight is a protected characteristic in Michigan.
Dank, Dank, Dank, Dank, Dank.
What are you thinking here, hon?
What’s theidealoutcome of going public with this?
So that Lyft will somehow make this right?!
You’re going to get meme’d to death from now until the end of the time.
Now, as far as the lawsuit goes…throw it out.
There is quite literally ZERO ground to stand on.
Our community guidelines and terms of service explicitly prohibit harassment or discrimination."
I just feel bad for the driver.
The poor guy was simply trying to do his job and ended up getting put on blast.
Fingers crossed Lyft takes care of him the way I’m sure they’ll take care of Dank.
