Key phrase on group rides:
"we are introducing a new way for people to ride together—without extra hassle for you. When your rider adds friends to their trip, the app will take care of everything. So all you need to do is pick up each rider and follow the in-app directions to dropoff."
Oh, I have no doubt the app will take care of everything. This wouldn't be a bad idea really, if the pay is commensurate with proper pay for X number of pickups and a single drop off. And if drivers are informed up front of total pickup and drop off distances. And if waiting time is kept to 5 minutes TOTAL for all pickups.
What do you think the odds of that is?
