If you plan a long-distance trip, you may wonder how far Uber can take you. The good news is they don't have a distance limit, but there is a time limit of eight hours. This works only on Uber Hourly, which offers Uber by the hour with a 2-hour minimum required.
How many miles do you drive in Uber?
It's not uncommon to find Uber drivers today working 60–80 hours per week and putting 2000+ miles per week on their vehicles. They are like dogs chasing their own tail. The more hours they put in, the more money they will get, but the extra miles required will add to their expenses as well.
How does Uber count miles?
Uber and Lyft's driver app will record on-trip mileage, or how many miles you drive when you have a passenger in the car. In reality, you can deduct your mileage on the way to the first passenger, between passengers, and on the way home at the end of the day. This usually results in doubling your deductible mileage.
