Does Lyft have trusted contacts?

The link opens a view of your ride in the trusted contact's default web browser. Here they can see if you are in a ride, your approximate location, and how long you've been driving. To protect a passenger's privacy, trusted contacts are unable to see drop-off or pick-up locations.
