[NAGDU] Lyft

[Nancy VanderBrink]

Oh, I really like that! It would be really helpful if the app would tell you what color the car is because that is one of the biggest problems that I don't know what to tell people if they're trying to help me look for a ride.

This is very helpful if my husband, who is partially sighted, is with me or if I’m calling a ride for him to get back home. I believe Uber has a photo of the vehicle but not the color in text.
