Original caption
July is supposed to be the slowest month for rideshare drivers… and today it was raining too. Instead of listening to opinions, I decided to test it myself. This is exactly how much I made, how long I worked, and whether rideshare is still worth it in 2026. If you’re driving Uber or Lyft or thinking about starting follow my journey as I rebuild my life one ride at a time. Would you still drive if business was this slow? #U#UberDriverL#LyftDriverR#RideshareLifeG#GigEconomy##TikTokCreatorSearchInsightsIncentive
