Also nice for the driver wanting to retire for the day that he can get fares that get him closer to his home.

Is that a feature Uber/Lyft drivers have? I always thought they could not see the destination before picking up the client.
I recently talked with a Uber driver, they cannot see the destination of the client, but he said he can specify the rough area where he wants to (eventually?) go and fares will take him close enough to that direction.
Concurring with sibling comments, last week I had a Lyft driver who was using that feature because she was ending her shift.
Yep, its fairly recent though.
