NOT Safe!! I was threatened with deactivation for decline/canceling rides in known high crime/gang ran territories. I explained numerous times I was warned by police and others not to go there - Lyft did nothing. They ruined my preferred status over this. I was set up 1 night by a ghost acct - which Lyft did nothing when I reported it. 4 carjackings in the last 60 days in those areas. I won't compromise my safety; I switched to Uber. They vet their riders - No ghost accts!!!
