The Rideshare Shortage

Frustrated Person on Smart Phone Waiting for Ride Share Driver Imagine that you were desperately late to go to the airport and needed transportation to get you there. You decide to call up a ride-sharing service such as Uber or Lyft. Much to your dismay, you realize there isn’t a driver in your area. As a result, you know you’ll most likely show up late and potentially miss your flight.

For all the convenience that a ride-sharing service like Uber or Lyft may possess, they lack one major thing — reliability.

And it is now more apparent than ever.

Currently, Uber and Lyft are facing a widespread supply shortage of drivers. For the drivers that do persist, they’re charging more and raising the wait times for everyone else. In other words, the convenience many relied upon when using a ride-share service has disappeared.

Why The Shortage of UBER and LIFT Drivers?

Uber and LIFT Driver Shortage This phenomenon begs the question — why is there such a shortage of drivers in the first place? According to the companies, many drivers are still hesitant about contracting COVID. During the height of the pandemic, they also realized the mental and physical toll that ride-share driving took on their lives, which gave them the push to move on.

Most of these drivers left their previous customers in the dark. Not only do these customers have to experience longer wait times, but they also get charged far more for a less quality ride. With no guarantee that the ride will show up on time or be cleaned effectively between rides, customers can no longer count on Uber and Lyft when they need them the most.

This rings especially true if you need to get around in the Phoenix area. Whether you’re trying to arrive at the airport, or elsewhere, a ride-share service can’t be relied upon to get you to your destination.
