What I remember about that was the sweet non stop surge. Up to 5x on Uber at some points. No gas meant no drivers, and on a busy weekend with lots of demand...it was awesome. Especially since I had filled up my Prius already and a full tank gives me a good 400 miles. Even when I did have to fill up, the surge pricing more than made up for those prices...but still my car only takes 9-10 gallons to fill up so didn't break the bank filling up it all. It was nice.
Remember those HIGH gas prices during Harvey?
When idiots were filling up trashcans in their pickup beds...
Hour+ in line to fill up, if you could find a station with gas...
Gas peaked at around $2.60/gal/reg.

We now are right at that same $2.60 avg. having gone up ~$.60 in the past six months = almost a 30% price increase.
How much have TNC raised our rates in the past year?
I remember emailing Lyft about bump in pricing back during Harvey.
Think they added some sort of ride/bonus type intensive that week+.
Harvey gas prices without the needed price increase.
Just raising the minimum +$0.50 to the driver would be helpful.
Uuugh.
