I called a Lyft. I waited for 8 minutes, the driver rode right past me (As I was waving my phone), turned, and stopped three blocks over. (It was perfectly safe to stop and pick up on my street.)

After waiting for 5 minutes, I cancelled the ride, and was charged a fee. I walked half a block to the arterial, and hailed a taxi in two minutes.
