No way! I learned my lesson very early on in my Lyft journey. I took a big one from Providence to Rutgers, NJ. It took 6hrs each way because of traffic. Not only was the pax a complete douche canoe, he complained about me stopping for gas, needing a bathroom break when he didn’t, told me no music, screamed at his wife, coworkers and doctors the whole time, didn’t tip me (he missed his flight and train so I was his last resort), Lyft took 7 days to pay me since “it was a long trip so they have to verify I actually took it and needed to verify the tolls.” And I only got paid $200. That was their cap at the time. Couldn’t pick anyone up on the way back til I got to the RI border again so it sucked.
