https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/trump-supporter-calls-911-black-lyft-driver-not-turning-radio-225018422.html

Lyft driver Shawn Pepas Lettman of Brooklyn, N.Y., calmly filmed the 16-minute tirade by passenger Robert Ortiz and his two friends, who called the New York City police after Lettman refused to turn on the radio. I feel racially profiled because Im not black, Ortiz tells the 911 operator. He later adds, If this guy does anything to threaten my life, I have to defend myself. Im a little fearful.

I am in no way defending the crybaby passenger, but I am genuinely curious, why did the driver not turn on any music as requested? Im sure he's in no way obligated to, but I am honestly curious about this after watching the video.

According to Instinct Magazine, because Ortiz shared his phone number with the 911 operator and it was recorded on video, he received so many harassing calls that he changed his number.

Whoops

Honestly, no. I'm just curious is all.
I've never driven for, or been a customer for Uber/Lyft, but I was just under the impression that most drivers provide some sort of music or way to play your own music during a ride.
