I think the problem is that with this much demand if a few people do this they will make it very hard for others to get a car - which will end up just annoying them about the Lyft experience. Lyft would prefer shorter rides that would be distributed around more people.
Now it's basically investors subsidizing a few long trips and pissing off other potential riders.
- FatalLogic 12y agoI wonder if they really thought through the consequences of this then? They got another $250 million in funding recently, so money isn't a problem. Probably the money prompted this program, in fact. As you said, they could get things under control by forbidding back-to-back free rides in the same car, assuming the terms are flexible. That would be more in the spirit of the offer, and nobody could really complain about that.
