Also - I thought that Uber keeps 20% of the fares? Had no idea it was 50/50. If so, that's completely insane and really would make me question if it's worth it. And 50% of tips too? Weird, because aren't Uber tips purely discretionary and in cash? Do Lyft/Sidecar do the same thing? I swear I saw something about Lyft coming to OKC too. I wonder if their terms are better if some drivers will defect. I saw an article about Uber offering free tanks of gas to drivers who switched to Uber from Lyft in SF.
