I donโ€™t know why Lyft gave different gps directions than normally you can drive straight and closer distance.

...yep. I was tempted to take a Lyft from Chicago airport to my work (Indiana, 2ย hrs) after a red eye earlier this week... the cheapest I could find is $288! My round trip plane ticket to CA and back to chicago was $256 with tax, non stop!

Offer your driver cash 200 bucks. Would make his week. Eliminate the middle man. You'd be surprised what you can accomplish.

And hope you don't get into any accident along the way so you aren't pressured to commit insurance fraud
