This Lyft Driver Uses Her Congressman Father's Honda

Users of the ride-sharing app, Lyft, were treated to more than just a low-cost ride when they requested one specific car.

Maryland Rep. Elijah Cummings confirmed Tuesday he gave his daughter, Adia, permission to use his Honda while she was a student at Howard University in Washington, D.C.

But in an effort to pay her school bills, Adia used her father's vehicle to enlist as a Lyft driver, according to a statement obtained by the Washington Examiner.

The recent college graduate continued to work for the company as she looked for full-time work.

The only problem was Adia did not remove the car's congressional plate, which granted her the Democratic congressman's parking privileges, before she slapped on a Lyft sticker.

Kid used her dad's car to make money. unless she knowingly parked where she shouldn't, having been told about the privilege the tag brings ..... I have no problem. it wasn't a government issued car. Or government fuel. I bet even Trump would agree.

Apple doesn't roll far from tree when it drops.

She would have been completely familiar with the benefits daddy had in moving around town and his neighboring district since she grew up enjoying them.

Unclear if she actually abused the tag privilege while running her jitney. Pretty good bet nobody called the insurance company to alter the coverage.

And pretty good bet she was both admitted and graduated due to daddy's position.

Democrat Marxists don't care about laws. Cummings is another affirmative action idiot. Looks like his daughter is the same.
Tell me again why blacks get special privileges?

Another corrupt MD politician.

When he let her take the car to college with her, he should have immediately removed the special plates and replaced them with standard tags. He knew better, just wanted to flaunt his family's privilege...look how special my daughter is, daddy's a career politician!

I don't see it as specifically a "black" privilege issue, I think there's plenty of white congressmen who would have done the same thing. It's definitely a matter of taking advantage of unearned privilege, but it has to do with elitism more than race.

Remember, "we the people" elect our Congress. "We the people" need to stop re-electing those who feel they have different ethics/rules than citizens. Cummings needs to GO and his daughter needs to learn a lesson that the rest of us would receive...a penalty!

Way the hell do "we the people" continue to elect MORONS?

"We" aren't. It's the Baltimore and PG county multi-voters.

How many firefighters and cops have special tags and allow their wives and children drive? I see plenty of Chief tags with kids driving well above the speed limit. Never pulled. old women on cell phones with MSP plates all over the road and parking where ever they please. For every finger you point..... three point back at you!
