Several customers have indeed had issues with drivers working with food delivery apps, and some have gone viral. For example, some drivers demand tips or refuse to deliver the product. However, they are also victims of horrible customers. For example, in Alabama, a Karen almost ran over a DoorDash driver, but the problem escalated when the driver gave her a beating she will never forget. You have to be very careful when driving and learn to choose your battles wisely, because this could have ended much worse.
Redditor TheManager_1 shared a fight between two women outside a Chick-fil-A on r/KarenGoBrrr. In the video, the Alabama DoorDash driver, the woman in dark clothes, pulls Karen’s hair and beats her up. The Karen barely defended herself while on the ground, but she tried to slap the driver’s leg. However, the driver just walked away, picked up her things, and entered the restaurant.
‘The way she carried on walking into the building like nothing had happened lol’ said iSmile_ALot.
If you’re wondering why we called the woman in blue Karen, it’s because a user, sonoran_scorpion, explains that they found this same video on Instagram. According to this user, these details should be taken with a grain of salt. Karen almost ran over the doordasher, who yelled, “Did you not see me?”. This angered Karen, who rolled down her car window and replied, “What the hell is her problem?” The driver responded by saying that she had almost run her over and then spat on Karen’s car. This caused Karen to get out of her car to throw a metal water bottle at the dasher, which earned her a beating from the driver. Something that did not go unnoticed by users was the aforementioned metal bottle.
‘Ah that’s the sound at the beginning. Sounds like an aluminum container‘ commented Scythe351.
The context was very useful for users to take sides, although in general, many pointed out that the whole situation is wrong. However, many understand that DoorDash drivers have a very difficult job and that, at most, they are working very hard to put food on the table every day. But this is a clear example of how no one wanted to be the bigger person in this problem. Fortunately, unlike cases of road rage, this issue did not escalate to the point of claiming someone’s life.
