Driving Lyft - What You Need to Know

Nice video very informative I thinking about joining Lyft this is very helpful thanks 🙏🏻 for sharing this video

I tried it for 3 weeks and customer rating dropped to 4.42. Now just stick with food since food doesn't complain.

Thanks for video. I will look for more

my experince with lyft could not get online website to work no matter what browser i used or even my phone ......... only office in phila was lsited at 3945 frnkford ave which is like many miles from south phila zip 19148 had to take bus to iith and market $2.50 the hop on frankford elevated to erie torrssedale stop $2.50 now bad cause uber would charge like $30 to travel that distance so after i get off turn on google maps and had to walk 7 blocks

def right place seen cars parked with lyft emblems on them well it is no longer lyft office it's a biz that rents out cars to lyft ......... and there is no live reps on phone the main number or the local number to that office!!!! also saw on yelp one guy never got his $350 bonus no help on phone or e mail so in 40 mins im doing live call from uber agent and will go with them

Great tips!!!🎉

Lyft_Crack got me reactivated

Awesome vid! This is has me looking forward to my new Lyft endeavor thank you sir.

Goddammit why don't you carry a charcoal grill and you could make lunch for every one that rides! I'll tell you how to make money guaranteed, but if your a slacker or afraid of work it s not gonna happen. Drive. Drive 12 hours a day 7 days a week. Drive and take every ride they give you. Your gonna make money. Go as fast as you possibly can all day long.

Very helpful ty

if you complete more rides and consistently get high ratings, your tier status will offer you more incentives the higher you reach i.e. you will get more filters.

payroll takes until Friday the following week, unless you go premium with cash out. warning: if you are renting your Lyft car through Express Drive you cannot cash out until the rental is paid for.

Just started this week. This video is very helpful. Any info on what be considered tax deductible and if there’s a limit on gas and food deductions?

I say all gig jobs should not be taxed, everyone call there congressman and tell them to stop taxing gig jobs

Obviously filmed in Utah, I see the lds meeting house parking lot you filmed this video in. 😊

Can disability people use a lyft app for transportation to go to the shelter about adult abuse,when people call 211,I'm living with disability.

Great video. Thanks for doing it. The interesting part I see is that you made $20.21 a hour if you count your online hours or $30 an hour of booked hours. At 1400 miles with a low cost of 25 cent a mile you earned $15.07 if you count online hours and $22.45 an hour if you count booked hours.

Nice tips! Thanks!

I am definitely considering driving for lyft

These were great tips. Very in depth breakdown of the whole experience! Thanks man! Well done!

Be safe I drive and I love it

How does taxes work can you opt for a W2 instead of a 1099?

Thank you for sharing☺💥

It keep saying my insurance expired

Don’t forget to mention they pay pretty good for referred drivers

Hi. You didn’t say what kind of rides were u doing like Lyft bla or lux

With gas and mileage depreciation IRS will have you making about $1 per hour !

Do you want the truth about Lyft, ill tell you. They could care less about the drivers, no matter what star rating you have or how many rides you have, a fake story ends it all, that and you kill your car for low pay,do that he math, factor in deprecation and repair costs, you don’t make anything. Lyft is brilliant at exploiting drivers! I had 22,000 rides and a 5 star platinum driver when the deactivated me for no reason, don’t do business with this company!

What a great video. Definitely lots of great tips for anyone thinking about or already driving for Uber or Lyft. You are probably one of the best drivers I have ever heard from. Did you continue driving with them? Thanks for the great tutorial and wonderful tips.

Best Lyft driver video I’ve seen yet. Direct and to the point, but still detailed - appreciated the specific examples of overall earnings and explaining how the bonus works. Driving around nearby colleges for shorter rides is a great idea too!

Thank you, informative!

I make 200 a day for 6 day total 1,200 a week in 30 day 4,800 a month

Lyft is an okay gig as a side job outside of your main source of income. I seriously can't see how people can live off of app jobs.

Wow! Appreciate info. That makes me wonder how some folks I’ve encountered claim they make $1000 to $1500 a WEEK!!!

New question are riders able to screenshot driver's profiles, This is a safety concern???

This is called LYFT driver fishing where new Passengers with no profile picture And fake name. Hunt for easy targets. To steal lyft driver's vehicles and Carjack and possibly injure lift drivers???

A Civilian uses cash to buy a prepaid phone and credit card sets up a fake LYFT account with Fake Name and Fake or No profile picture Possibly Untraceable or An Identifiable, Screenshot certain drivers and or vehicles, And targets them for weakness/vulnerability Vehicle of choice for theft or carjacking or to injure driver...???

LET ADDRESS THIS ISSUE!!!!!!!

Tracen, great video for insomniacs....

Viva Azerbaijan !

Helpful-thank you!

So funny to see videos from the height of the scamdemic. Several minutes of video is about disinfectant and masks. Fast forward a couple of years and people barely talk about it and face diapers are barely seen these days.

Thanks nice video

Thank you

This was a good and informative video.

Blood sucker

Thx 😊

didn't John Oliver do a piece on this stuff and determine that you're basically PAWNing your vehicle when you drive for Uber and Lyft? How much money did Lyft make from all this, despite doing basically ZERO of the work?... they just maintain a few computers in a datacenter somewhere.... the system largely runs itself...

How do you turn off automatic ride accepting?

honestly I think it's the biggest scam ever lyft just get rich ripping us off because you can even see how far you are going .I picked up a ride and the guy told me this is where we are going .traffic was bad it took me 35 min to get there the guy told me I hope it was worth it I payed 35 dollars for this ride of 13 miles how much did I got pay 11 dollars .how much gas I spent 6 dollars profit 3 dollars really .this is a scam jerks I rather do doordash they pay me 10 for 3 miles .I can see where I'm going .I can reject what I don't want

Great video and excellent job! Following behind another vehicle is called drafting :) Curious: what hours did you work?

How much income tax do you pay ? Do you file W2 or you establish a corporation for a write off ??

You just gave a new meaning to rideshare jobs. 💯👏
