If you Aren’t driving on both Uber and Lyft at the same time you’re doing it wrong. I was making about $45hr in Houston by just switching between platforms whenever a ride came up. Double the money and opportunities instead of waiting on one app to give me another ride. I only did it for 3 months and had a lot of fun making side change and only driving about 4/5 hours a day. I never drove nights or weekends but if I did I would’ve brought in a loooot more. I grew up in this city though so it’s a cheat code compared to regular drivers that are mostly immigrants since I know where people congregate here and need rides at.
Easiest money if it was slow, head to the city courthouse because no one wants to drive downtown or pay for and find parking. I would always get $30/40 rides from there or near there since most airport rides were from hotel visitors downtown.
