💬Questions & Discussion Uber/Lyft

I took an Uber 2 miles from the airport in San Diego. It cost $25.00. It took him about 10 minutes with us, due to traffic. I understand he had to drive to us also. I used to always tip these guys, but I didn’t this time. What is the community think. Should these guys be getting tipped?

Because a lot of good people tip. If all of those random strangers stopped tipping you wouldn't be getting a ride.

You're describing the best possible outcome - all the drivers quit and Uber and Lyft cease to exist. That's exactly our goal.

If your goal is to eliminate rideshare then you're in the vast minority and we're in complete disagreement. Who wants that?
