The company blamed the $1 surcharge on rising costs, especially for gasoline and labor.

None of the charge will go directly to pizza delivery drivers, whose pay is hourly and per delivery.
Does this not seem contradictary? The cost of fuel has increased, not the cost of pizza dough. Now, if the drivers are responsible for their own fuel (granted, I'm assuming that they are...) then shouldn't the delivery charge be given to the delivery drivers, instead of Papa John's bottom line? Sounds to me like a nifty way to make an extra buck or two per order, while your delivery drivers get stiffed on their tips, due to customers mistakenly thinking that the drivers are being "taken care of".

Same here. Papa Johns is the second best pizza available in my neighborhood. Home Team Pizza blows them out of the water, but they're still better than the other alternatives. Nor have I seen any additional charges for delivery....unless, of course, it's just hidden in the bill.
