> When you go out of town you stay there
Stay as in? Spend the night? Just stay there on the curb side hoping for a chance that someone will need a ride back? How is that "making money"?
> or set your direction home and pick up rides in that direction
Drivers already do that. Additionally,
- A driver who lives west of town will not pick a ride to the east of town on the off chance that there will be a ride back if only he stays there long enough.
- A driver only needs to go home at the end of their shift. So why would he pick rides in the direction of his home at any other time? Hoping for a chance to pick a ride on the way back?
> Drivers who say they don't get paid coming back are ignorant.
As I've just demonstrated, it's not the drivers who are ignorant.
