RideShareRay - Private Driver - Lyft & Uber Driver Ratings

Hello, I’m Raymond! 

Not to sound, egotistic, but I’ve got the name of someone that, well “everyone loves…”. 😅 

Okay, so maybe not everyone but the people who are my regular passengers at least. 😁

I’ve been providing Lyft & Uber rides since 2019. With 3 years driving, 1,700+ rides completed and an average rating of 5 stars with a squeaky clean driver record….

I’m your reliable private driver / chauffeur. 

Here’s the vehicle I’ll pick you up in:

 A 2015 Honda Civic.

So What's The Story Behind RideWithRay?

When Lyft & Uber went public on the stock market, driver fares plummeted. From a 70/30 split, both companies flipped the script on drivers and decided to start taking ~70% of our fares which left us drivers earning barely enough, like, ~30% of the fare. 😳

It costs quite a bit to operate with all the costs associated with rideshare. 

 I was basically barely getting by mainly from tips from the passengers. So.. if the passenger didn’t tip…I was screwed. 

The money earned, just wasn’t enough.

Not for the immense amount of time, effort, energy, the cost of gas, vehicle wear & tear, regular maintenance like new tires, oil changes, car washes and the insurance required to operate, it honestly made it next to impossible to earn a living or a decent wage to cover expenses. 

So, what did I do? I took my experience gained and I started to provide my own transportation services. 

That’s how RideWithRay became what it is today. A private driver / chauffeur service.

Cheers to that! 🥂 

I look forward to driving you!
