Almost none of these DoorDash / Uber / Lyft drivers are doing the math with consideration of the wear-and-tear on their vehicles, nor the increased likelihood of accidents given they're out on the road more than they otherwise would have been. These are net negative "jobs".


A job in the hand is worth two in the bush. The friends I've had who drove for DoorDash and/or Lyft were in between proper jobs (e.g CVS and reception at a hospital or something), and that in between period was lasting longer than they had the savings for.
