Does Lyft take your money if you miss your ride?

You can schedule a Lyft ride up to a week and then cancel the ride at no charge, if you cancel before you're matched with a driver. If your Lyft driver arrives and you don't show up within five minutes, they can cancel the trip themselves, leaving you with an automatic $10 fee, in most locations.
