DoorDash is preparing to shell out more than $50 million this quarter to help drivers cope with soaring fuel costs as gas prices hammer consumers and businesses alike, with California emerging as a major pressure point in the nationwide crunch. The San Francisco-based delivery giant said Wednesday that the extra spending will fund temporary fuel-price relief for drivers in the US and Canada. The company first announced the program in March after gas prices surged amid the Iran war.
