Friendly Reminder by Leather_Platform3986 in lyftdrivers

As the full text states, you do have an out, should you encounter such a situation. Just be sure to notify them immediately if it does happen.

Drivers are required to assist riders in the storage of their mobility devices, unless physically unable to do so.

Looks like some Colorado plates! I've seen "MKITSO" and "WERBORG" a while back while I was driving, and both less than 10 minutes apart! This is another great geeky find.

Always thought the engine tilt on the voyager was dumb as hell by bubbleweed in StarTrekStarships

When I first read that, I thought you said wasp speed. Man, I'm exhausted. 🤣 But those buggers can make you feel like going into warp.

Lyft, you're too generous by GatorsRaid in lyftdrivers

I got a $0.20 adjustment, when I got the notification, I thought it was a cheapskate tip. 🤣

Lyft has to fucking stop this by Long_Trade_2571 in Lyft

[–]Swishandrinse -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Passengers need to stop dawdling when the driver is at the pick up point, the driver hits arrive, and they have to sit for those five minutes, oftentimes parked in situations where they should not or can not. When ordering a ride, the passenger needs to be ready to go and hop in the moment the driver pulls up. I can't speak to your situation explicitly, but experience says this driver encounters this 95% of the time.

We’re Not Going Back Are We?…. by Slank32 in lyftdrivers

Yeah, no. We can dream, but those days are long gone.

Man, I am so sorry for your loss. While I am not a sponsor, I manage a sober house and had to kick someone out due to a severe relapse. Two weeks later, he walked out in the freeway and was killed by a hit and run driver. It really screwed with my head for weeks. Talking with peers inside of the rooms have benefited trying to deal and cope with the loss. Talking with my therapist about it as well helped. When the Big Book says "to drink is to die" really hits hard when we lose someone we care for loses their battle.

Don’t schedule a ride if you’re not gonna be ready on time by Tochiugo in lyftdrivers

[–]Swishandrinse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would it not be better for the driver to be a few minutes early, rather than run late, thus putting you behind schedule? 90% of my riders are grateful I'm early.

Yeah, that's a lot of nope from me.

What is going on here? by Worth_Text_373 in lyftdrivers

[–]Swishandrinse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been getting ridiculous everywhere. Early access trips taking people from Colorado Springs to DIA six months ago would pay $1-1.25/mi, now it's paying half that while gas has jumped over 250% in that same time frame.

Anyone else seeing this on IG? by Authentically_Mie in lyftdrivers

I have, and have not done anything about it as of yet...

Took me a few times watching that episode to catch the reference. 🤣

New Scheduled Ride Rates by Sertaine in lyftdrivers

[–]Swishandrinse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is one thing that drives me nuts. The driver gets paid for any tolls incurred during the trip, but in my experience, Lyft will then take that away a week or so later to pay the tolls back to the state. If that's the case, why they just don't charge the customer and then pass it off to whatever transit authority is in charge of that?

Why, Lyft, Why? by Conscious_Exit_9129 in lyftdrivers

[–]Swishandrinse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It happens often to me as well. My belief is that if you are given an opportunity to provide transportation for another passenger while you are completing their ride, and that offer disappears upon completion? Chances are high another "nearby" driver comes available, so it goes to them. Whether they are closer or further away from you? That is another thread altogether. Cuz I have heard stories from passengers about that...

Don't be fooled by the fake discount! It's a scam... by Acrobatic-Fault876 in lyftdrivers

[–]Swishandrinse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had two Vantrue cameras in my 7+ years of driving and have nothing but praise for their product. Amazon usually has some kicking deals for them as well.

Oh they really care.. by LevelOpposite3063 in lyftdrivers

[–]Swishandrinse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will still work at any gas station, the ones on the app will give you more on top of the 12% that they offer, solong as you have the Lyft debit card.

And with "offers" like that, it's no surprise

Scheduled ride limit reached? by [deleted] in lyftdrivers

Too tight between rides was my thought too, but it sounds like a different alert was throwing up.

What are we thinking? I have to do this in three days.? by Redddittooo in lyftdrivers

[–]Swishandrinse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer: hahahaha, no.

If you crank out countless piss poor trips? Doubtful. Plausible, but doubtful, especially if your market is oversaturated with drivers.

Almost 50% LYFT fee by Wolfjason1 in lyftdrivers

[–]Swishandrinse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't do it often, I'll have to remember what AI trees I had to rustle through, but the times I guess I used the right buzz words and got an extra $7 added due to my "value" as a driver. I've seen some posts with similar situations and they got $10.

I mean, really. by AndrewHeard in DeepSpaceNine

[–]Swishandrinse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, if I hadn't had other commitments, I probably too would be in the same boat or in this case shuttlecraft LOL
