Lyft is absolutely instructed to be chatty. Along with the fistbumps, passengers defaulting to the front seat, and the pink moustaches, it's very much part of the experience they offer.

Personally, I enjoy talking with my drivers most of the time. If I want a quiet, professional ride in the back of a lincoln towncar, I opt for Uber Black.

I'm sure this is so annoyingly introverted of me, but where's the off button for the chit chat if I just want a (usually) cheaper ride downtown?
