I speak from personal experience bro.

You could be right in your own experience but don't say the other person is wrong I stead speak for your self.

Do you get receipts each time you use the toll?

Have you bordered to confirm if the toll was added to your fare?

Observe these things and let the house know and learn.

A few people like me are free to give advice and expose our success secrets but many of us would never do that instead they talk you down when you're trying to make a point.

Lol. I got a trip to Sango ota yesterday at Obalende, I wanted to turn it down, but d rider pleaded with me not to cancel and promise to offer me more money. He said about 5 drivers cancelled and refuse to go because of bad road. Omo mehn! That place is very very bad. After Abule Egba, Is like they dug hundreds of 3feet grave from Abule egba to Sango ota. As you coming out from a big deep pit you are entering another one. It continues like that all d way to Sango ota. Rider was telling me that a truck fell and killed 2 hawkers due to d bad road. Hammadiya, Kola, Alakuko these places are eyesore. Very annoying and irritating place to go. I wonder how that place will be when it rains. I can't count how my silencer hit d ground. The trip ended 6,600, rider added extra 2,400 making 9k. Luckily for me I got another trip from Sango back to Abule Egba under bridge. I got to kola and change route followed AIIT road to Ekoro road to burst out to Abule Egba. I am saying these here to sensitize U guys how that place looks like before U go. Greed of extra pay made me take such adventure.
But I don't think I can try that again.

Guys if you didn't participate in today's traffic, congrats. You re lucky. I was fully involved. Idado estate to Ojodu. Rider decided to go back to Lekki after more than 6 hrs in traffic. Just dey reach house since 2pm. The trip was offline and the lady won't add to the fare after even taking her back to Lekki. Local man just gentle.

I learnt some people are still on the road anyways.

eyinola:
plz bro, what's the best %?

izzou:
[color=royalblue] Coming from Egbeda, Lasu road is good....very good. You'll just branch through First gate and you are there

But if you want to pass Mile 2, first buy a new bumper at Ladipo and tie it on the car.

You're most likely to get your bumper or fenders torn either at Barracks, Volks, Iyanaoba, Alabarago or Okokomaiko [/color]

northbird:

ekehopp:

Parlee:
I was not so far from the place so I decided to drive down there and called her. Please make nobody call am again she don complain of the calls. Thanks guys

InfinityEstates:
Wow...

Firstly, is Law School not a bus stop? Why would they arrest you for parking there?

Then thank you for rescuing someone in need. One would not understand the pain you go through when you fall into their trap. And then when you start begging them, they begin to feel like gods... People that ordinarily would can't even stand to talk to you... It's annoying jor. Thank God for your wife. You entered the Lion's den and came out unscathed.

I don't have anything against Bolt. They gave me platform to have accomplished alot. All this challenges is as a result of Covid19, I am trying to pass message to you being a veteran in business but you re hating on the messager instead of the message. Since I stopped using dashboard earning to measure my performance few years back, I have achieved some success in the business. You have to look beyond dashboard bro. The Business is more than dashboard earnings.

[color=royalblue]I read here, sometime ago (can't remember the moniker) where someone said he has a driver doing only Ocar(no Uber, no Bolt), and the driver is getting by

stacyadams:
spending 1 .8, on a car for wuber is expensive....u know say some trips na 400 300 naira.?

pope191:
It is well, just b praying they don't remember you.

pope191:
Ba wahala, that won is in d past, I only say so cos no one is above being blocked... Bolt head is doing over heating right now, if they block someone for this reason, how long will it take before everyone get dia fair share?


And for the issue you have today, I don't have d right to tell u what to do or not, but let's say in the spirit of one love. We need to b careful, Nigerians are emotional and aggressive folks, common false alarm of thief! Next u see people don bring tire and start to beat the person, sometimes we underestimate the power of peace. No one is perfect not even me, but when God give me grace to think twice, I ask myself if I'm normal... I once gave a car hot chase from ogudu to motor-way, until sometin rang in my head like, what if u let dis b? Another experience that crack me up was one happy day, as I try to avoid pothole, dis okoda came from no where, that kind of hit the rider on the okada with his wife blast on d car provoked me, I gave them a hot chase like I was about to knock them down... As we both pull over, I step out and go straight for the guy, damn! His wife was beating the car, no one borrow me sense, before I rush into d car and scared her away with the car, the devil in me still want to find a safe place, so I can come back for return leg, until I saw someone with big stone heading towards me they no they tell person, the highest I can get when we get to police station, is dragging agreement on how long it will take for them to pay for damage.


Note: As we keep saying riders r acting up, is same way riders r saying the same about drivers.

Defensive oratory

U mean he is defending his Nickelodeon long story

Bigleaf1006:
You all are quick to chastise a partner who has done his feasibility study and has equally paid his dues in this game ,suffered and is still suffering just like everyone of us here.

You have all been calling uber and bolt all sorts of names but you still can't do without them also tell me,has your house rent reduced,or your cost of feeding or your cost of parts or how much you get your drugs if you need to?, are all this people evil too?.Many have lost their jobs,many more will, are those bosses evil too?

You need not insult or call anyone evil, every business has got it's secrets and every success has been an opportunity seized and an edge maintained.

We work with our drivers and we know what is achievable.

Ask, research and think so you can get ahead of the times, because u can't make it doesn't mean no one can.

Dont hate what you don't understand and don't fear what you don't know, We even have a driver whom all he has is an opay account,no Uber,no taxify and he is still getting by.

Need I point to you that our drivers were quite busy during the total lockdown, which they have forever been grateful for. A couple of persons here can bear witness to that.

I am not a lugard or some arm chair business man,am a sleeves up, hands on, socks off working person who is very active in not just one segment of transportation.

Brace up guys, don't get too comfortable in your comfort zone.

I wonder if uber don’t know there is curfew. There destination trip is not available all the time. I set destination from 4pm only bolt work, Uber will say not available at this time. Me go just go offline on Uber, cos I’ll definitely cancel if the person not going my direction. Uber should learn to adjust. This is Nigeria. Bolt keep adjusting, that’s y bolt keep leading Uber.

Next time, don't turn and go and meet them.

Ask them to cross over and meet you. Then start the trip and begin the journey to Alakija[/color]

Babadee1900:
see ehn, if everybody begins to share their experience with rider canceling when they are almost at the PU, the ‘tory go long gan. This lockdown period, there’s been more of rider canceling than me canceling, sometimes I feel they are pranking the driver.

For me anything from 5pm I’m already on my way home. Anywhere I am by 5, I must set destination to my area and keep driving, if I get a request along the road, good, if I don’t still good.

nitigriti:
It won't work! Bolt is being clever by half.

Say, I'm a driver and I've installed this protective shield. Let's assume my rider #1 for the day happens to be positive for Covid-19. I'm carrying him from Egbeda to Lekki, a 2- hour journey on the average.

On our way, he makes and answers calls. He sneezes maybe once or twice. He coughs once. I'm jamming serious tunes on the car stereo — he's singing along too. I drop him off in Lekki 2 hours later. New request comes in ... I head out to the pickup location ...

So the protective shield is no good if all it does is protect the driver and leave riders exposed! The right thing for Bolt to do is to create systems that will make drivers disinfect their cars and the spaces riders occupy after every ride. That way, everyone is protected.

UBER is useless!

The sexiness even multiplied by 2, maybe you are not observant.

What you shared is not an ongoing trip. You can still check the current price only when you have started the trip.
