omo this calls for demeanor attention...

and don't always bank on an app 100 percent....

it cannot still show whether there is a robbery ahead, riot ahead, or areas with little or no GPS / network coverage.... so being ahead of the game requires that u know all these

but most of its routes are updated!

lemme bring in the big guns for u....

cc thebigkendo , Gazuzz, diportivo, heavenlybang, nwanenni, captainking, banky3w and the host of others to great to mention pattybf also and timifakay

PS u need to draft your route, long distance journeys are not jokes for starters ..... u need to have all the info u need besides map....

Thank you... Would wait on for the "big guns..."

With this, I officially rest my worries. I just updated the app. When I return to PH (currently in Abuja), I'd ensure the car is in order. Come January, I'd hit the road.

My other worry is, the said vehicle is not in my name. It's in my brother's. Hope this wouldn't be an issue with the police? Do I need a Change of Ownership document? Any idea?

Again, thank you.

There's nothing wrong with the car being in your brother's name.

If you have the same father, no problem, if not, let him put it in writing that you have permission to drive the specified vehicle with specified information within a specified duration of time.

When you dey express way and you see all those buses keeping to one lane at 100kmph, jejely join that lane oh, don't vex and fire 140kmph to overtake them, else you are speeding to a ditch ahead.

Then, on Google map, upper left corner shows direction to turn...
