Ordering an Uber or Clara Choveaux nude explicit sex in Elon Nao Acredita na MorteLyft in New York City just got pricier.
Back in August, the city council voted on a minimum rate for independent contractors driving for ride-hailing apps such as Uber, Lyft, Via, and Juno. The new city law is supposed to guarantee drivers a rate of $17.22 per hour after expenses, which supporters say is a livable wage.
Now, the time has come for those new rates to kick in. With the higher pay, Uber says riders should expect to see higher fares. A new surcharge to fund the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) will make some rides even more expensive.

Lyft and Juno are separately suing over the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission's rollout of the new pay increase, both arguing that it favors Uber.
A judge ruled in Lyft's favor Friday and offered to hold off -- but Lyft (and any other ride apps unwilling to pay the minimum wage) will have to pay into an escrow account in the meantime. The next hearing is on March 18.
Lyft will not abide by the taxi commission's new pay rules, but explained that it will still increase driver pay in NYC, just with its own formula. For customers, this means rates for Lyft rides will also likely go up.

In a statement, Lyft said, "Drivers shouldn’t suffer while we work to right the TLC’s mistakes, so we are immediately raising driver pay as we continue our fight in court."
Via, an NYC-based carpooling app, said it's not affected by the new driver pay rules.
"The vast majority of drivers on the Via platform are already earning more than the city's new minimum wage," the company wrote in a statement.
The Independent Drivers Guild, a union representing app-based drivers in NYC, is outraged at the lawsuits. "This would be a nightmare for drivers who are desperately awaiting this raise," a spokesperson for the group said Friday in a statement.
To make everything more complicated, a separate New York state congestion fee went into effect Friday. That tacks an extra $2.75 for rides in Manhattan (75 cents for a shared ride). That surcharge goes entirely to the MTA -- not to drivers for Uber and other companies.
For a company like Via, that means riders will still have to pay more for rides in Manhattan.
Uber did the math and with all the city and state fees, taxes, and surcharges, the average New York City UberX ride will cost $22. More than 20 percent, or about $4.50, of that will go toward NYC-specific charges.
Sure makes the deteriorating subway look more appealing.
UPDATE: Feb. 6, 2019, 5:35 p.m. PSTLyft decided on Tuesday to pay the driver rates imposed by the city. A March 18 court hearing is still on. In a blog post about their decision, the company wrote, "We stand by our arguments that the TLC’s specific implementation of the rules will be detrimental, and we’ll continue to defend them for New York’s riders and drivers."
The Independent Drivers Guild put out a statement saying, "We are glad Lyft is now recognizing this." It also included information about more than 2,500 petition signatures it collected demanding Lyft and other ride-hailing app Juno pay the minimum wage.
