The Guru Take
Lyft Driver Pay in Los Angeles
Estimating a driver's take home pay is always a little tricky as it depends on which service (lyft, lyft plus, etc) the driver is driving for as well as external factors such as how often a driver hits surges or peak pricing. When considering expenses (gas, insurance, etc), as a general rule-of-thumb, many drivers net about $1.00 a mile as their net profit. Of course this can change from city to city.
RideGuru does have a driver take home pay estimator that can help you to more accurately estimate how much you might make per trip.
