Lyft plans to schedule rides a day in advance

Lyft is rolling out a new feature that's common among taxi and car services yet rare among app-based ride companies.
The San Francisco firm announced Monday that it will soon roll out an advanced reservation feature that will let customers use the Lyft app to schedule a ride up to 24 hours before they need it.

The feature will be tested by Lyft employees in San Francisco before it launches in other markets.

Lyft competitor Uber declined to comment on whether it was developing a similar feature.
