Experts say Uber has cut mileage rates from 99 cents per mile to 68 cents.
One driver in Florida said the change resulted in him getting $15 after a customer paid $37 for a trip to the airport.
He says that’s way down from when he started driving nearly a decade ago.
Since last year, the average driver pay for Uber has declined year-over-year by nearly 12% per trip.
