Lyft day driver
Can you stick around for a bit?
LThe last time I visited San Francisco I took so many Lyft and Uber rides. It was convenient to have someone pretty quickly available but it got expensive fast and waiting around was annoying.
Wealthy people have the luxury of hiring a professional driver for the day. This isn’t economically feasible for most people… but what if it was?
According to a quick Google search, the average rideshare driver makes $150 to $200 a day. This led to the creation of the Lyft “hire for the day” concept. I set the price way too low at $65.18, but realistically if this was a $200 feature I bet a lot of businesses with teams who travel for work would use this in a heartbeat.
There are also likely services I just don’t know about that offer this, but regardless I think the idea is worth putting out there.
