Make nobody accept trips going towards second tollgate lekki.. the road is totally blocked...

I was on a trip from 4 points to abraham adesanya (indriver 2300). I had to abort midway after spending close to 2 hrs and we were just approaching jakande. I told rider I would forfeit the fare but she gave me 2500 instead. She followed me back to freedom way though

SaintHilary:
My neighbor picked me up today, always had d feeling he's a Uber driver based on the way he leaves early and comes back late.

But wat surprised me was he said assuming he knew it was me, he would've declined That he doesn't even accept trips from or to our estate (probably he doesn't want anyone to know he's an Uber driver).

I personally think it's stupid cus Uber drivers earn even more than sum office workers now...so y should I be ashamed Or naxo sum drivers here dey do too?


PS: That Ogataxi dude wey leave Uber go do real estate just bought a Camry muscle..The clown say e dey fear to come here cus e no get money for give away
Was super excited for him Wen I saw him yesterday...that's progress mehn! Big ups to y'all

I have a lady 3 houses from mine, after picking her requests on 2 different occasions she started calling my number instead of requesting anytime she needs a ride.
All my neighbors know and the respect is still there cuz the way you carry yourself matters, if people notice you have low self esteem they will treat you like trash

hayor88:
I min Akowonjo.....what do u think i could do

Have you been there yourself or you just sent money to someone? Try and go there and find out what's happening

hayor88:
Bro Abeg i have bin on a fresh licence at shasha road safety since Aug. Till date my licence is still not ready.....what can i do plsss

Never heard of any road safety office in shasha abi which shasha are you talking about?

Felicity0001:
You still count profit compare to driving on Bolt in a long run.

Let's do a rough tilter

Assume you drive 8hrs daily, 6days weekly with a difference of N1 on Uber.

8*1*60min= N480
6*480= N2,880
A month= N11,520
1yr= N138,240
dy/dx of 5%= N69,120

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Lol bros I no go fit know whether you right or wrong o cuz I no even understand the whole thing. Where dy/dx come from na when there's no x and y

Felicity0001:
Mr I know it all, Mr facts and figures.

Have you also tried to calculate those figures in a week to a month and in a year to see how much you stand to loose driving at N10/min in every 11/15hrs drive daily?

Also take time to calculate that N300 compensation after covering some km to pickup and bolt riders cancelling without you getting compensated. Assume 10 weekly in a year then see how muxh you're losing as a driver.

Smart business driver, I great you.

You're doing well.

Whatever loss you may suffer driving on bolt in a year can't be up to what you'll lose to uber in the name of extra 5% commission

BiggyB242:
Lol thank you bros. So, like how much can one request for on a weekly bases using your location. Where I am isn't as busy as Lagos, I reside in Benin.

Here in Lagos its between 20k and 30k, mostly 25k. I don't know how it is in Benin, you can download the rider app, request a driver and ask him all you need to know. Let him know you'll pay for his time

BiggyB242:
I want to register my car for bolt but[b] I'm renting a driver[/b]. How do I get paid and how does the driver get paid, I don't really know how it works. Please enlightened me.

Lol. Rent a driver ke, it is a driver that will do the renting (rent your car) for a reasonable amount that will be paid to you weekly, that's how you get paid. As for how the driver gets paid.. don't bother, the driver will sort him/herself

dru23:
Nobody dey look for my trouble that is why memes no dey o.. It has been boring self to be honest, I get too many memes hidden in the vault... I just dey look for person to use am for .....

shollywendy1:
Do u have an idea on the road's condition to agbara?

No idea. I think eizenburg went there today

dru23:
America spec cars are usually very good ... whether na kazzem or shop mechanic, the point here is to get a mechanic that knows what he or she is doing........And car owners also need to take responsibility when it comes maintenance.... When majority of car owners are using wrong oil and water instead of coolant etc ....nothing do USA spec cars I beg

I just fast forwarded to the part where you wrote oil, i know your post can never be complete without it

Eizenburg:
Personal trip, can’t abort. Mission must be completed.

I went to ijanikin last weekend. Road is manageable up to ijanikin, I don't know about beyond

Slickleo:
Me don even resign from coke and gala, nw na chicken republic refuel I dy so.

What's the difference. Better go and start eating pounded yam plus goat meat
You no know say e get reason why those baba for park no dey eat rice

northbird:
@ chucsmoore, Baba, you r right o. Indriver is makin a lot of sense rite now, I mean around ogba, I did 3 short trips, of wc no traffic, I don get money for fuel for d d day. I'm lyk on Bolt, dt trip fit no pass ₦500, wt discount sef.

Uber... Don't go dere, dose trips can't b more than ₦300....


Rite now a combination of Bolt and indriver is lways a jackpot...

For over 3 mths, I hv not driven on Uber. Quest plus, gold, splatinum.... I'm not too bothered rite now..

3 months? It took you so long to find that working combo
I'm dusting up my boots like this, I wan enter road back.. I'm getting fat lol

emmatrack:
Thanks for the quick response. Two more questions:
- so I have been using the so called palm oil on the car, is it advisable to switch to synthetic?
- what's the recommended average mileage to change the synthetic oil? I saw 75000 in one of the brands

There should be somewhere on that oil label where they wrote "you'll have to change the oil along with the engine"

Alvin007:
How on earth can Bolt refuse to idemnify, or compensate drivers from this sole responsibility of hers, and yet, clearly state it in her terms and conditions?
We really need to study 'Terms and conditions' before clicking 'I accept'.

It all comes down to a simple question... Do we have a choice?
If I don't accept, others will and the train moves.. without me.
This is just an explanation, not justification.

Crvrider:
Its all good bro. But light that oven with care, you don't know where its been. Some oven change destiny.

That one na destiny wey wan change

xanie:
I noticed that each time I use the wipers, AC and maybe headlamps, the battery icon lights up and the power steering stops working until I switch off the AC. What could be wrong? Vehicle is a 2005 Corolla.

Check around your alternator, the culprit should be there.
I'm not a mechanic o so I could be wrong

walter315:
Good day,

We are creating a group for Lagos based Fleet Managers on the Telegram app. The purpose of the group is basically to leverage on each other's resources; like knowledge of the business, contacts of good mechanics and body shops, help each other with driver recruitment needs (rental or HP), car sale deals. etc but most importantly promote improvement, fairness, and share ideas...

By this act, we are multiplying our strengths so much so that even a newcomer in business won't have trouble starting because its a forum where he or she can ask questions...There is always an advantage in teamwork over working alone or in a smaller team. so if you are interested, chat me up on telegram so I can add you..

07020656762

have a great day

ps, the group is on the telegram app, if you don't have it you can download.

Good day house,please i want to know is 100k reasonable for a trip from sango tomorrow to osun state to come back on Saturday?

Very reasonable. Grab it

Otunbalai:
Good day guys..

Please, I just got a toyota camry (big daddy) 2004 for this business and many people are advising I remove the thermostat to avoid the car doing over heating during hustle. Kindly note, I'm new to car usage, this is my first car actually....kindly advice ....

I've been using big daddy for over 2 years, thermostat still intact and no issue of overheating, I no dey top radiator water sef cuz it doesn't go down. Don't let them abuse your car

Why 04 to be precise? I hear the 05/06 move faster and consume less fuel. I hear o

Felicity0001:
So we still have people who knows and like good things like me... The last time I bought a car perfume of 2k many criticised me saying I lack good savings skills and will hardly prosper in life... Can you imagine?... Poverty has eaten deep into d minds of many. The g.o.a.t even advised me to use the N200 aboki perfume he uses... Inside life... When people can fit into your shoes they instead wish you downgrade to their poor low life. God forbid!

Greatness is in the mind. Its how you see and place yourself you will become in life.

Just about 3weeks ago I went shopping for some clothing, bought some nice suits and pant trousers, I wore one of the suits to work after Sunday service and all of my riders rated me 5stars without asking.

I read how a lot are emaciating like small letter "i" simply because they have decided to be selfish and wicked to their own stomach by eating junks like gala and coke, very soon they'll be diagnosed of diabetics. Make una eat Jamiacan Rice from radautoworks you say no (its just 3k), ok I offered to buy for them only 2persons mailed me and got their meal, heaven no fell. Eating healthy and eating well doesn't make one poor rather rich. Health is Wealth.

To you that has been eating gala, N100 meatpile prepared with rat meat and sold by those obalende Ghana boys and you that is using N200 aboki perfume, watching your car by yourself after driving for almost 18hrs daily, have you build a house? How many cars do you have on rental?

To that federal g.o.a.t that claims to be a millionaire catfish grower and still drive on Bolt coming from Anambra, who do you think you're deceiving? Fish farm requires more time than any other livestock farming the earlier you go back to your village and take care of your fish the better for you, else your supposed workers will feed your fish with gamanin while you're here trying to move Lagos to Anambra.

Nonsensical nonsense!!!

Macsjebs:
Good morning Sir
Thanks for your interest
Cost 8k only plus 1k delivery. Total=9k
Looking forward to your patronage

Please next time don't add "only", that's 20 short trips and you said only
I'm interested in your car diffuser of 3k but you didn't reply my question on your thread. I want to have an idea of how long it will last. Thanks

Felicity0001:
100%

How about a corolla in used privately for 5yrs, how much do you think would be ok for HP. Present Millage is within 160k-170k.

It depends on the year of manufacture and how sound the car is with regards to engine, transmission and body.
Check out how much used cars in similar condition are being sold on jiji n co then add around 70% profit

izzou:
[color=royalblue]What if the previous driver had paid 250k?

You know how drivers are skeptical about taking a Naija used on HP[/color]

Car should still be in top condition then and still command high resale value. All in all it's business, a double edged sword

Crvrider:
What happened to "customer is always right"?

At the end of the right, there's a left. This one got to the left

Babadee1900:
This people at Four Point Sheraton, I always find it funny when they request to see the bonnet

Meanwhile when you drive out of Four Point exit gate , don’t go right as if you are going back to the express.

They're just doing their job, they have to confirm that it's your engine you're driving out with

izzou:
[color=royalblue]When a driver decides to discontinue a HP contract, it is not really a Win situation for the partner

Most drivers would prefer a Tokunboh for HP because it has not been abused yet. If a driver breaches his HP contract, who will take the car on HP again?

So most likely, the partner may begin to lose.

Anybody going into HP should be ready to faithful to the last. If you quit, you have left the partner in the middle of the sea.

[/color]

With a befitting price, drivers will grab it in no time. HP doesn't have to be 3 million+ , if the previous driver has paid up to 1.5m out of the initial 3m+ , owner can spend out of it to put the car back in shape and put it back on HP at a price below 2m

Felicity0001:
Bro it is what it is, business.

Incase you want to know I'm currently renting the car at N25k weekly for 2weeks now and we are doing great while working on something else.

Don't hate a man because he speaks his mind eloquently

Good morning, thank God it's Friday.

No matter how sweet the relationship is, don't carry ram to kano No car owner likes that shii
