Jury Acquits Former Lyft Driver of Assault on Rowdy Passengers

Posted on February 27, 2020 by curata

A former Lyft driver was acquitted of assault charges after confronting intoxicated passengers he had been transporting on an early morning in 2016, according to the San Francisco Public Defender’s Office.

Vincent Perrault, 46, was acquitted of the charges Tuesday connected to the ride he gave four passengers on Dec. 27, 2016.

According to the public defender’s office, Perrault asked the passengers to leave his vehicle after becoming disruptive and telling him to “shut up and drive” around 2 a.m.
