The change to variable priced rides is because the 'cut' of the fare that Uber takes has been standardized to 25% while driver pay remains based on time and mileage.
Giving drivers information about upcoming rides is a separate change.
- e12e 7y agoHow does that work? If a driver is always paid x/minute/mile (total X), customer always pays Y dollars as made up by Uber. Uber takes U, 25% of Y, pays the driver X, where does the rest go if Y-U-X > 0? How can this ever work without Uber sometimes taking a loss?
