I've had rides that cost me $15 and took 45 minutes, the math does not add up at all.
In fact, I commute with Lyft nearly every day and my average 40 minute ride costs somewhere around $20. Even with another ride directly like mine it's unlikely there's enough earnings within an hour to cover Lyft's fees and pay the driver $20...
- icebraining 7y agoUber and Lyft are both losing money for a reason, though.
