How is driving for Lyft in Long Island compared to Uber? Is Lyft your primary, supplemental, or worthless?

Rates in both Nassau County and Suffolk County are both identical to NYC,
but Southampton has significantly higher rates.
If close to Southampton, is it worthwhile driving there?


Gross rates shown above, before 20%-25% fee deducted. Unlike Uber, no fee on cancels.

Lyft will not give you calls out there unless you have a town permit which you can get unless you have a base out there

Hi all,

I'm a new driver and took a ride out to SH last night to grab my 4 rides for a $100 bonus. I landed that easily while logging in a total of 7 rides for $237 plus a $20 cash tip, all in high surge pricing except 1. Each ride took a while because the speed limits out there are mostly 20 or 20 mph. One ride was 54 minutes! I drive an XL so I mostly picked up big happy parties of rich people. A great night for 5 hours work, I believe.
