Bad gig drivers moral conundrum (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I had a Lyft ride today where the driver had a check engine light on, ran 3 stop signs at full speed, and had their high beams on the entire time. I tipped him well.

My quandary is should I report this person as a terrible driver, or give them a pass because we're all struggling to make the ends meet? This was in a pretty dense neighborhood.

It sounds like he's a legitimate danger to others on the road. I wouldn't let that go unreported. Think about it like this: If you do nothing, and then later read that he hit someone and hurt or killed them, will you feel guilty about not saying anything?
