   5 years ago in  Uber and Lyft comparison, which company should be the driver's choice in 2019?

  I was always under the impression there was little to no difference. I see you mention the surges a lot, would that be the biggest difference you see?

   5 years ago in  London is only letting Uber operate for 2 more months

  We all know Uber will find a way to operate for longer than 2 months. This is actually a win for them, they should have been stopped but instead they got a 2 month grace period to adjust.

   5 years ago in  Drop Off Time

  I think these times are more just an estimate, they are not guaranteed. Do you always use Pool/Line? While these services are cheaper you always have to budget for much longer rides!

   5 years ago in  Are Uber and Lyft drivers okay with a 15-20 mile (20 minute) trip?

  I think this type of ride is pretty normal TBH, I think you would be fine with getting a ride. It may be a bummer for the driver to drive back without a fare but it is common!

  How would they verify? I agree this problem needs to be fixed but part of this in on these kids parents for letting them have such freedom.

   5 years ago in  New York Times reporter Mike Issac wrote a book Super Pumped The Battle For Uber coming out tomorrow

  I read this little synopsis earlier, sounds pretty good actually.

  "It was the middle of winter of 2017, and Jeff Jones, the man responsible for Uber’s public perception, was trying to shake everyone in the top ranks of the company awake. Uber didn’t have an image problem. Uber had a Travis problem."

   5 years ago in  Lyft will only let you drive if you have a 90% acceptance rate and had done 100 rides the last 30 days

  Is that a hard acceptance rate to attain? I mean shouldn't drivers be accepting all rides?

   5 years ago in  What is your opinion of Uber & Lyft's rating system? What would you change?

  I do think it is good to have a rating system. I know some people are all up in arms about it and say it is dumb but I think it is helpful for Uber/Lyft to weed out the bad eggs. I do think they should weed out bad passengers like they do with drivers but they probably will never do that. 

  I like that there is some standard verbiage you can choose if you want - kind of dumb but I never have time to type out my thoughts.

  You might also want to look into a carpool sharing program with other parents. If you can swing school drop-off once or twice a week you may be able to get the other days for free when the other parents drive. Not sure if this would work with your schedule but thought I would mention it!
