I took a total of 73 Lyft rides in a year. If you have read my previous post about how many Uber rides I took in a year and what I found out, then you already know how this one about Lyft is going go down. If you haven’t you could spend a few minutes reading that too.
I was able to keep track of my Lyft rides in a year using one of the features in the Lyft app. For the Lyft app, you can see your past rides via the “Ride history” tab. There you will see details such as ride distance, ride time, ride cost, car type (brand and model), and the driver’s details (name and picture). These details are available for several months after you take the ride. You can even export these information as an email report.
