Lyft's New York Launch Is Delayed But Protesters Still Showed Up To The Launch Party

“They are throwing a free party and we’re here to ruin that party.” Protesters from the New York Taxi Workers Alliance are happy that Lyft did not launch last night.


While the party kept going, nearly 100 drivers from the New York Taxi Workers Alliance shouted towards the crowd and event organizers.

One protester, Victor, told BuzzFeed that they were protesting the rideshare aspect of Lyft and that isn't innovation but piracy of jobs. "We abide by the rules, pay high insurance and leases, have workers compensation, and protect our riders because we are trained professionals," he said.


"Lyft is a multimillionaire corporation. And yet, they don't want to abide by the rules and regulations they should have to go through," says Victor.
