Is 20% a good Lyft tip?

The General Consensus of Tipping Lyft Drivers Usually, if the ride is a short distance, then the tips will usually range from $1 to $5. For the more lengthy and costly trips, 10% to 20% tips are displayed as options. Of course, you also have the ability to select your own tip amount.
