The record shows that the mark “YOUR FRIEND WITH A CAR” is dead; it was abandoned because the owner, Lyft, Inc., failed to file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was registered on the Principal Register and covered a wide range of goods and services, including paper goods, clothing, toys, and business services such as an online marketplace for transportation contractors. A similar name would raise the closest concern in those same categories, especially where the goods or services overlap with the listed classes. The record does not give Lyft control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods and services listed. No enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. The last significant event was the abandonment notice on February 5, 2018. For anyone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the broad goods and services list still suggests a potential concern if used in those areas.

Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.

Your name deserves a straight answer.
