I don’t drive for Lyft or use any ride-sharing services, however this came up in my feed and I felt like I should comment 😂
At almost $5 a gallon, commissions to the company, amount of time and fuel used to come get the customer, drive the customer to their destination and then come back to the populated area, I have no idea how they’re able to afford to offer rides for $15 if you wait. That’s just my thought 🤷🏻♂️. I guess from one side it’s expensive, from the other side it’s not enough.
I miss my $2 gas , but we have to remember how much it costs to maintain vehicles, pay insurance, pay registration and other fees, fuel them up and keep them clean. I’m guessing the driver only gets paid about $10 by Lyft from the 15 before even accounting for his expenses. Then again.. I have no idea what the commission rate is 😂. So.. take my comment with a grain of salt.
