Demonstrations by Lyft and Uber drivers are planned in at least 20 cities around the world.
Drivers in New York City will log out of their apps during the morning rush hour from 7 am to 9 am, the New York Taxi Workers Alliance said in a press release. Drivers will also hold a rally at Uber and Lyft's office in Long Island City, Queens at 1pm.
"Wall Street investors are telling Uber and Lyft to cut down on driver income, stop incentives, and go faster to Driverless Cars," Bhairavi Desai, executive director of the NYTWA, said."Uber and Lyft wrote in their S1 filings that they think they pay drivers too much already. With the IPO, Uber's corporate owners are set to make billions, all while drivers are left in poverty and go bankrupt.
They're demanding an 80/20 fare split of gross passenger receipts and a minimum living wage of $20 per hour after expenses.
