Lyft wants to kill surge pricing.::The number of Lyft rides that were affected by surge pricing dropped 35% from the first quarter, according to CEO David Risher.
But if people knew up front they weren’t getting a truck, they could make other plans. Instead they only found out the day before their move, that they were screwed.
In the case of Lyft, what’s better: Knowing you’ll be able to get a ride for 2-3x the price? Or finding out while standing on the curb, your normal priced ride won’t be there for an hour or two?
