Not a typo: $5,000 bonus for new LA Lyft drivers by Easy Journeys. Massive bonus, but requires 1,000 rides in 90 days so you’d need to go full time. Basically an extra $5 a ride if you can hit that 1,000 ride threshold.
Uber’s First Self-Driving Fleet Arrives in Pittsburgh This Month by Bloomberg. These aren’t driverless cars as there is still human ‘supervisor’ in the drivers seat. This is obviously where the market will shift to. Uber has 1 million+ drivers that they would like to replace sooner rather than later.

If car parks are an issue, the car can simply park itself somewhere else and come back when I actually need it.
