hello, i'm a student from europe and i'm looking job for summer in USA,
so i wonder how much i can earn as pedicab driver (for example in miami,
orlando or key west). cheers, Peter

Not much. The majority of pedicab drivers work for tips; the more
entertaining, helpful and informative the driver manages to be, the
more that the tourists will tip them. You have a problem before you
even reach that point; getting a work permit. Believe me, the other
drivers will not let your status as a foreign national go unnoticed,
and you will need proper documentation to get the required permits,
some of which can't be had on short notice.

You would have had a better chance getting work with the Holy Rodent
Empire (Disney), if you had applied well in advance both for the job
and the necessary documentation.

Not to mention that summer in Florida is NOT the prime tourist season for
the simple reason that the heat and humidity sucks. That would also make it
a less than desirable environment for a pedicab. ;-)
