Insurance is the largest hidden cost for drivers, and it keeps rising. People have no idea how much it costs to own and run a car.
Including most of the idiotic drivers - hence why all you ever here is them complaining about not making enough money as if someone held a gun to their head and made them do it.
@@commonsense504yeah there is a guy here in TH-cam called Uber jeep AZ. . Always bitching about the pay. It's like wtf...he has an accountant day job. Why is he so hard up on Uber and Lyft for? He has some good points to be fair. Do you think it's creepy for an old man to be lurking for cash rides around the college campus?
@commonsense504 no one is holding a gun to all the workers from other industries such as Healthcare, fast food workers, teachers, government workers, UPS drivers and yet they too protest instead of finding a new job. Drivers deserve fair and better pay like all the other workers.
The Rideshare Guy channel is super shady. They advocate for predatory payday loans aimed at gig workers. They also dispense a lot of questionable information.
if they leave, then a new company will come in.
which company?? Lmao
whoever wants to make a ride share app obviously@@Saiputera
that should be so obvious it would make me feel dumb asking @@Saiputera
@@user-zi5dk3vi6d Minneapolis look like third world city. A lot of companies prefer California or new york city lmao 😂😂
@@user-zi5dk3vi6dand it will be super expensive for riders. Congrats.
Taxi will be happy
Ah yes the good old days of waiting for a taxi to show
They going leave 😢 fix it. They will pay. @@DeathCon666
When is costs more to run the office verses the actual work is when you know you have a problem. The white collars took all the money.
taxi companies never took that much percentage out of their fares.
The Rideshare Guy channel is super shady. I don't trust them.
Why's that? Have been covering the industry for 10 years and provide tons of free info for drivers but feel free to check out our content and judge for yourself.
, hope works well for both with good heart negotiation .
Bring Back Taxis
Whether they leave or not is not important. The bottom line is that transportation just got more expensive for the consumer.
Nobody put a gun to anyone's head and told them to use their vehicle to drive around other people. I saw the Uber/Lyft scam when I quickly determined that my car is too old for them. I had to buy a more expensive vehicle that depreciates faster just so I could work more?
I will pass.
Seattle is a richer city compared to Minneapolis
How about the driver? Some riders get $3 per ride only
No way this will happen. Absolutely no way.
Before they leave’s make then pay what they been steeling the Driver for years
No
Minneapolis cam and must block uber and lyft from leaving.
How are they going to block them? The City Council could actually go by the rates on the State report rather than the higher rates they decided on. Unless the City is willing to budge, these companies are gone.
No government can or should be able to force a business to stay.
Who else thinks that that's the driver's choice to become a driver
same can be said about nurses, teachers, and city workers protesting and going on strikes for higher pay.
@rocketboostjump Difference is those are actual jobs with a set salary, set hours, and benefits. Rideshare drivers are CONTRACTORS. They do not work for Uber and Lyft, the companies are outsourcing work to them. The drivers are SELf-EMPLOYED. Just like any contractor, if they can't be profitable in their business, it is time to shut it down or work with different customers.
@@HichigoShirosaki1 that's the BS Uber is spewing out to the public. UBER Is a transportation company and they should adhere to transportation regulation just like the taxi industry does. 2.50/mile and .65/minute
I think is dumb if both leave Lyft should take advantage and have the whole state to themselves looks like Dave trying to stay on Dara good side just in case he needs to go over to Uber he's trying to keep the doors open because if your competitive you would stay and let the other go they did this in the u.k now the drivers are happy and Uber is still making there money
No. They not leaving
Imagine having the option to work anywhere and choosing to work for uber just to turn around and complain about the pay .. if you dont like the pay go work for a taxi company.. that simple.
Many drivers invested 20k to 50k to drive for Uber/Lyft. When I go into the parking lots I see many expensive vehicles. It isn't easy just to say I quit and try to sell the vehicle because more than likely you will end of selling it for a heavy loss owing thousands. Best case scenario would be continue driving and make enough until you get the vehicle paid off
@@rocketboostjump How much drivers are investing into their sidejob is no one else's problem. Noone put a gun to the driver's head and said to invest in an expensive car for a gig that pays very little. The customer should not be paying for the driver's stupidity.
@@HichigoShirosaki1 customers should just get their own car or ride the bus.
@@HichigoShirosaki1then tell customers to walk or take the bus. And tell riders to stop messing up people's vehicle with their vomit and kicking vehicles door because the driver do not want to make an extra stop not included in the ride or slam vehicle's door like many of you guys do, including yourself. Take a hike and walk to your place or take the bus. We do not need riders like you. In fact I do not drive for Lyft anymore, nor I will after dealing with so many idiots like the one I writing to, that hide behind a letter and a fake name.
Ok
Our City Council needs to stop with their power trip. So many people will lose their livelihood.
You think Democrat politicians care about people like YOU?! HA HA HA!
@@johnhonker437 Democrat is a noun, the adjective is Democratic, which would make it "Democratic politicians." If you continue your mispronunciation of the name of the Democratic Party in its adjectival form, you’re telling everyone how deeply, deeply uneducated you are.
So you prefer to work for less and let someone take advantage of you just to keep a job? I’ve worked with people like you.
That's not there would be allot good taxi and limosine companies willing to pay well this drivers and transport passangers Uber and Lyft didn't exist 9 years ago and people where getting transported very well.
Simple fix- Uber/Lyft driver/food deliver take rate is between
75%-80%. Take rate includes the “So called commercial insurance (pocket $) plus external fees”. Change the platform a bit, have the driver get thier own rideshare insurance, plus rid some external fees. They can now distribute that $ to the drivers. I hope this isn’t to much common sense for the “GREEDY GIANTS” .,.
I think I read from a different video covering this that one of the comments said that if they leave, there’s gonna be a lot more drunk drivers on the road, if that’s gonna be the case, then the blood of the victims of those drunk and drivers will be on Uber and Lyfts hands.
Minneapolis city council and the small group of driver are the once that are hurting the community.
No it will not be because the City Council is who caused them to leave despite their warnings that they would do it, meaning the City Council did not care to prevent it.
This legislation is payoff to a special interest group that the uber riders will have to pay for
They literally said they are leaving. How do you not understand this
You've never successfully negotiated anything I take it...
Don't tell him that. @@JoeLorence
Minneapolis and Minnesota is general are dumb as hell. Borderline socialist state
Uber is the biggest lying corp. in the USA. They are BS-ing
@@JoeLorenceAnd if they are not negotiating? Unlike Seatlle or Austin, the population here is much more insignificant. Minneapolis doesn't affect their bottom line as much you think.
$15 minimum wage isn't viable in many places..
But the wage gap between employee and CEO/Executive is? THINK BIGGER ☺️
Here we go. 🙄
@@noahzero9380ceo makes the company he deserves every penny
Minneapolis is so crime ridden it's surprising that Uber and Lyft are still functioning now.
I moved to Minneapolis 2 years ago and haven’t experienced any of this crime 😂😭
@@noahzero9380so therefore it doesn't exist. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
🙄
Crime is everywhere ignoramus jack ass
@@noahzero9380liptard
It's ok with him that rates are higher. Ok, he's not paying them, you are. So he's saying it's ok that you pay more.
Minneapolis is a dying city
Eww, are you a Trump cultist who lives in Minneapolis? Get out of my city, you election denying, uneducated, anti-American.
Has been since the riots
$18 big mac value meals why not double the rate of the lift And Uber rides. Wonderful Biden economy.
Eww, are you a Trump cultist who lives in Minneapolis? Get out of my city, you election denying, uneducated, anti-American.
