I've taken many Lyft and Uber trips in SF recently. It's amazing how many have new, high end cars.

One driver was a PYT and recent immigrant driving a luxury Mercedes C class. Wasn't hers. Sugar daddy's? Something else?

Doesn't make sense. I feel there's something else going on.

Many will have a story about being hired to transfer a bag or a box. Drugs? Money? Guns? Even then there couldn't be enough business to make a good profit.




I haven't seen many. The few I have been in have been people just doing it for "fun" if they were bored or to keep themselves out of trouble. They never seemed to be the people coming in from Stockton or Reno and needed the money.
