Anita Johnson
An unlikely "full-time" rideshare driver who has safely completed over 11,670 Uber trips in Metro Atlanta since August 2016, and over 2,828 Lyft trips since 2021. My interest in rideshare driver earnings began due to Uber's 2017 decision to change driver payout from 80%, then 75%, to mileage and minutes rates when riders were given Upfront Pricing. In 2022, Uber came up with Upfront Fares for drivers, which is significantly less than what drivers were earning in 2016. Driving for HERide since September 2022 has been exciting, and a refreshing breath of fresh air that Atlanta needs to know about! UPDATE: I've been wanting to get off the road (stop rideshare driving almost since I started) for various reasons, all documented here. My wish has finally come to pass as I am no longer a rideshare driver and was medically "retired" at the end of September 2024.
