Uber Drivers Annual Income?

1 pointralank1 comment

Just got out of ride with Uber driver that claimed the average SF driver earned $120k last year...is that real?

If so, why aren't there more doing it?

Yes avg drivers gross billings are north of $100k. Issue is Uber needs to quality check drivers are legit, registered and qualified. There isn't a HUGE amount of drivers who are actually able to fit into this profile.

Uber are taking more measures to get more drivers on the system esp with the recent JV financing deal with Toyota to create 100,000 more uber/self-employed drivers.
