this is my point. i hope these guys dont gain too much market share or put all other taxis out of business or i wont be able to get around town.
Lyft offers the option to tip, if I'm not mistaken.
Correct: you are offered the option to tip post-ride.
I would presume, if they were smart, that they would not show how much tip you make per trip, rather per week, so you can't get annoyed at individuals. Doesn't work of course if they only give one ride, but do drivers ever do that?
