With drivers everywhere feeling the impact of gas prices, the rideshare company Uber says they’ll be charging customers a little extra to help their drivers offset their costs.
the company said that starting on Wednesday of this week, passengers will pay a surcharge of either $0.45 or $0.55 on each Uber trip with 100% of that money going directly into drivers’ pockets. The surcharge is designed to help drivers facing those record prices at the pump. Some drivers that spoke with NBC 7 say the new policy is better than nothing: “The thought is there so hopefully we’ll see a little boost from Uber and Lyft,” said Tee Vasquez.
Others shared the fifty cent bonus per ride won’t make much of a difference day to day, especially if they are making longer trips. Download our local news and weather app for
