Rideshare driver: sign up in Daytona Beach, FL

Make sure you’ve collected the next subjects when you’re ready to apply for a taxi driver job: a valid and clear driver profile photo, a valid driver's license, car registration and insurance, proof of work eligibility and social security number.

Your car needs to be in good condition for the standard rideshare pay. Ideally, it should be ten years old or newer, depending on your state's rules. Taxi companies will check your entire car at least once a year. A mechanic will look at it carefully to make sure it's safe and runs well. If there's anything wrong, you have to get it fixed before you can start driving.

Rideshare driving with your own car is among the top driving jobs. Your car just has to meet the requirements of your city or state, and all you need is a valid driver's license and insurance. You can use different cars for the job too.

Renting a car for rideshare and delivery is possible. Uber offers Uber car rental, and Lyft provides Lyft Express. Rideshare services give you different rental choices that cover everything.

How much money a taxi driver makes depends on how long they drive and where they work. If you drive full-time in the U.S., the average driver can earn about $40,000 a year after taking out expenses and taxes. Rideshare drivers get a part of each fare for every ride they give, and they don't get paid by the hour. Studies suggest that, on average, a driver makes around $19 per hour. Drivers can receive their income on their credit card every week.

You're free to work with both rideshare apps and delivery platforms. For instance, you can join Uber and UberEats simultaneously, using your car for both rides and deliveries.
