Uber And Lyft Adding Fuel Surcharges To Rides As Gas Prices Surge

If you need to grab an Uber or Lyft anytime soon, be prepared to pay more for your ride. I actually don't use these apps much lately because the rides costs are just so high.

Both companies have announced they're adding a temporary surcharge to deal with the spike in gas prices nationwide.

Lyft says the surcharge money will go directly to its drivers.

Lyft's move follows a similar one by its competitor, Uber, which announced surcharges between $0.35 and $0.55 on Uber trips and Uber Eats orders for at least the next 60 days.

I have another GOOD idea...these companies could ALSO give their drivers a bigger percentage of the fee.

Sidenote- the curb app is def my go to rideshare app when im not on the subway watching strangers fight each other...... https://gocurb.com/
