I’ve been a DD driver for two and a half years (it’s a lot of fun and a great way to supplement Social Security!). Here in Maryland I already make about $25-30 and hour, and I know some Dashers are already over the $42,000 range. Downside for the drivers, of course, is gas and wear and tear on the car. But it’s sure been a godsend for me...and a lot of fun. Here in our area, the Dashers really pride themselves on doing a great job. I know it’s not that way everywhere.
