Commuting expenses to and from your place of employment are never deductible.
Now, if you want to dance on the head of that particular pin and try to argue that these miles are self-employment miles and not commuting miles, then good for you -- but recall that ANY deduction, of any kind in any context, must be documented in the event of an audit (and claiming vehicle expenses is a huge red flag for auditing).
Uberlyft reports provide the mileage while transporting pax. But if you plan to claim ANY "roaming miles" as an Uberlyft muleschmuck -- let alone this creative odometering you suggest-- then you MUST keep detailed mileage logs distinguishing business from personal / employee use.
