...Not every potential driver for a Gig TNC (Transportation Network Company) like Uber and Lyft is in need of a vehicle. Some already have vehicles that they are currently financing or for which they have fully paid that are in need of repairs. TNCs should offer an option to alternatively finance said repairs in lieu of purchase of another vehicle. This financing could be contractual or require drivers to make so many pick-ups to at least cover the cost of subject repairs and reasonable interest that would be charged by the relevant TNC...
TNCs could develop partnerships with automotive shops juxtapose those that they already have with specified car dealerships to provide repairs to their drivers' vehicles. They could additionally, via said partnerships, purchase and finance decent cash cars and any needed repairs to them to market to their drivers for reasonable cost.
This would benefit especially low-income drivers. It would further and significantly prevent/decrease crime where vehicles and driving opportunities are provided to qualifying felons and where non-qualifying felons, including car jackers and/or others who can drive, would be privileged to earn expungement, reinstatement of revoked driver licenses, and/or forgiveness of fees for vehicular and other citations.
Gig driving work would provide the perfect opportunity for many individuals who have had run-ins with the law and/or those who do not like working a traditional work schedule to earn livable wages working whenever they'd like, provided that they stay out of trouble and sustain as economical as possible full-coverage vehicular insurance.
