Proposed Highest Ride Share Fee in Nation

Where: Chicago

What would the fee be? $3 tax on solo ride-share trips downtown

The next highest ride share fee? $2.75 in the Manhattan core

What are opponents to the $3 fee on ride share saying?

• proposed new fees will result in less demand
• tax specifically targets one of the most lucrative times, rush hour
• the tax also targets a most lucrative location, downtown
• drivers will take a big hit in revenue

Chicago Tribune via Apple News | Mayor Lightfoot’s proposed ride-share fees would be the highest in the nation. But other cities are also considering hikes.
