Don’t be late for your Lyft ride or you’ll have to cough up some extra cash. Seven years after Uber introduced the same rule, Lyft has followed suit.

For Lyft drivers, and the company itself, time is money, and a new rule means riders will be charged for being late and suggests the issue is a common occurrence.

Of course, if a Lyft driver arrives early, the clock doesn’t start ticking until after the arranged pickup time. There are no wait-time fees for rides that are classified as Lyft Shared, Lyft Access, Lyft Assisted, and Car Seat. Lyft doesn’t say how much you’ll have to pay if you keep your driver waiting, saying only that “wait time fees vary by location.” However, Uber, which introduced wait-time fees in 2016, charges about 60 cents per minutes, so we can expect that Lyft will charge around the same.
