Good afternoon everyone, I was using a vehicle for this hustle but I returned it to the owner for some reasons so the owner is requesting for the inspection report that I did in my name so he can give his new driver. Is it allowed please? Can inspection reports be transferred?
No.
D new driver has to do his own and other documents separately from urs to avoid impersonating and acct block

Good one bruv, focus more on incoming trips alert and shuffle the trip to complete and avoid declining and cancelling trips.

Ensure u put your eyes more on the road and look out for traffic signs to avoid LasTma.

Be very Careful at lagos island more than any place in Lagos as a whole, if u want to pick up ride or drop off rider always use oando or any filling station around till u master d road in Lagos island i.e balogun.

Continue with the good vibes you are giving to riders n also be ready for the worst riders.

Don’t forget to shuttle this platform every hour to get updates and share ur experience.

Peace

Chat me on 0eight030eighteight30one2 incase u need any assistance of any sought

so my one week block will end tomorrow,

it has been a very rough week i must say,but i still thank God.

my 1st blocking was for low acceptance rate,the other was for low star rating.

And as you all know, i have just one life line left which is one month blocking.

i just started this hustle last month n i av already been blocked twice.
both of which are out of ignorance if you ask me.

Even the bible says that"my people perish cus of lack of knowledge".


To this end,i am begging this honourable house to please advise n tell me the little trade secrets n tricks you all use to survive in this business without blocking.


please dont scroll without leaving a reply.
God bless you
If all the hints i give u no reach den e get as e b.

Work on those one i told u n in 2 weeks u will testify grin grin

Then this morning I ordered a ride, and the guy was asking if it was a cash or card trip. I told him it was card and the guy was like, "Sorry I don't do card trips". In my head I was like WTF! See ehn, just as we have mad riders, we also have mad drivers.

Hi guys, abeg anyone here with a 5.0star rating?

I had to order a ride yesterday and I realized the guy had a 5star rating. For my mind, wawu...

Got there and the guy started complaining that he was going to mainland but was given Ajah trip and all. And I was like why didn't you set destination to mainland, or have you used it up?

The man was like I can't use it up, didn't you see my stars, I'm on 5stars blah blah blah we can exhaust it. I was like how do you do it, I thought Bolt only gives 2 destinations a day,? Is it that you cancel when you get a request and tell them to reorder without using the destination option? The guy went on again about his 5star rating that he can set destination anytime he likes.

I just dey laugh for my mind. At the end of the trip, one mind said I should nack him 1star let that 5star reduce to my own... grin grin

Anyways sha, back to my initial question? Was the guy right? Do drivers with 5stars have more destination options a day?
D driver na rookie grin, am sure the driver had only completed 3 rides.

You’ll know a rookie by how many rides he has competed in your rider app immediately he picks your ride.

I smile, it's a complex world and when it comes to women, they can't b careful enough, we just have to pray for psycho not to balm light on them, but it's still inside a woman we'll find the deepest of secrets. We may not b clear about what the post meant by stalking, but if it is physical, then why is she yet to arrest the man, have a written agreement of distance to keep from each other. What happens to blocking him if it's not physical? I don't play one side, I'm direct and real, females r funny creature, I've seen a lot, d only tin I think males should do is to know when not to cross certain lines. I'll share one or three experiences to add more light to dis if time permits... I picked dis very beautiful lady probably in her mid 20s, being a phleg, if u don't talk to me, I honestly won't bother u and I'll obviously read btw d lines, if d ref awards me a penalty, he must ask the keeper to leave the goal post, unless I won't take such shot, the accuracy most b crystal clear to avoid don't b stupid. This lady and I have a good chat and vibes, honestly I felt we shoul keep it up, but I'm not wired that way, to b honest wit u, she do cross my mind time to time from October last year, not until last month I received a call from an unknown number and blab! blab!! She needs me to pick her dat day and every other days, which I declined due to short notice. Damn! She saved my number, I beat myself over asking if I can save hers, but felt, no! I should b mature and professional wit what I do, so I let it slide. It ain't easy I am running away, yet every dots keeping saying stick, now I've saved her number, we don't talk but never skipped each other status. Note: I'm not saying she have a thing, but guide your heart...

There's one we both had a good vibes, we chat every other day, she's lekki girl, while am mushin boy and me, I don't like wahala for my life, so whatever that is on that wall, I'm Steve wonder. I'll just keep it friendly till we fade or is it the call me whenever you are in Lekki one?

Shollywendy & Bishop knew d one that hit me this month, I still deh try swim comot for d matter grin as I am like this, I'm chucmooring all of them.

Ma'am, any woman that is not ready to play along, should b completely strict with sound warning the moment she finds a safe place... not all this enjoying attention, showing friends text and feeling herself that one person is toasting her. She's just another hoodlum, attention is doing her body totori, I've seen where a lady told a guy trying to toast her, how his breath is choking her grin the guy swallow spit, look dumb and don't even know what to say.
Chief, i duff cap for this, cos u just described me in every sense.

I carried a rider earlier feb from presken hotel gra, throughout the ride we started chit chat so tey we got to her destination n still continue chatting using style waiting for another ride.

Another ride came den and heading to d PU i got a text of how i made her day and hoped we could see again.

I just nodded my head in yinmu way and moved on.

Two weeks later she ringed me and was hinting if we could hang out that day, well i told her I traveled to benin city and she was like wow that wen am back i shud let her know.

Some lady riders are very sociable and me wont say cos u r social den I’ll now be strategizing on how to get u laid, for me its out of place.

While some riders and demons in lizards clothing. Rating a driver as horrible n nonchalant is so insulting.

I go tell uhna another story latter

Great people of the ehauling community..

i greet una.....


pls i really need to understand the RULLING on RPM of a car(corrolla)

mechanics say that at idle speed, 1000 rpm is the norm which i always argue with as i know very well that it is suppose to be around 750 to 800 RPM...

so after fixing my car recently...
i notice that my car started doing brake n quince.
my RPM was at 750 at the time..
mech says its because the RPM at idle was too low that i should increase it to 1000RPM.

so after increasing it..
i noticed its stable now but am still not comfortable with it....

pls i need advice..
800 to 1000 without ac is the ideal rpm with ac is inbetween.

Guy there's a difference between production of finished products and exploration of raw materials...in the case of crude oil, we r just drilling out what's under the ground. Even at that, the process used here to drill have been long abandoned in developed countries. Do u know how many oil fields and drilling platforms are in Nigeria apart from the most recent Egina FPSO?
No let make we digress, d engine oil made for Nigeria is not in anywhere close to the global standard and that's the fact. Oya go and ask Mobil customer care why the Mobil1 sold in America is different from Mobil1 sold in Nigeria grin
The mobile 1 sold in Nigeria is road side oil in Europe.
How come u will do oil change to tokunbo car in Nigeria then immediately it start shorting oil.

Is the price the same ?
This red cups are used in every corner in Lagos, boys , touts and party, but cos u travel often u say it doesn’t hold water well.

Nigerian standard is for Nigerians it’s not fake, it’s our standard doesn’t make it fake. American specs cars are different from Korean specs.
Wen you have tasted something good and quality, u will abhor anything less.

99% of things in Nigeria is a watered quality so getting good quality becomes a Herculean task.

But why are they arresting people for making U turn?
Is the bridge not meant for turning back towards airport?
Please educate us and where else can one turn?
They are not arresting cos of the u-turn but they are arresting cos of the speed lane u diverted from to use the u-turn going back to airport.

Wen u r on speed lane dont divert to service lane in other to use the u-turn bridge going back to airport, rather u have to be on service lane from that NASHO side.

Always take note of the markings on the floor of every tarred road they give perfect instruction on how to know where to turn.

So incase u miss it from the airport service lane drive slowly towards that charity brigde by the right side before u climb d charity bridge, there is a small bush with a tiny road to come back on d service lane then u drive down and join d service lane, u can now use the bridge back to airport. Its a very tricky one but be very observant u will see it, else u will go and turn at antony.

How people deviate from the subject and argue another thing here is disheartening.

No one ever said that AC doesn't make a car consume more fuel; but this is what everyone seem to argue and defend now. Forgetting what brought about the argument.

Someone asked if increasing the speed/fan of the AC from low>mid>high>highest makes a car consume more fuel respectively.
No one have given a clear explanation about this. But everyone seem to argue about what no one is actually arguing against.

I don't understand how u guys believe an engine put under extra push cus of one using the AC doesn't consume much fuel. If ure speaking with newer models of cars, yes cus of some emerging improvements on the whole system. But don't coman tell me a 2001-2009 cars don't consume more fuel on AC is laughable

By the way the issue of regular fan and AC is somehow different, it's the speed of the fan under the evaporator that increases not the one outside ( the condenser fan)
Bruv see eeh wen the fan speed is at 1 the ratio in which the ac condenser kicks in is 10seconds Ac then 10 seconds no Ac i.e just air, then at speed 2 its 20 seconds to 10sec at speed 30 sec to 10sec.

What i just explained above can only be noticed if u are very observant when driving and better still u can watching d condenser from the engine compartment.

This Explain how the engine consume more fuel at different Fan speed. But the difference is negligible if ur car is in good condition.

The analysis i made above might be different between car manufacturer oo, what i explained is what i noticed about my own car and that was last year during that corona virus time wen boredom wan wound person for ous grin

They don't deserve any explanation, cos they didn't pay for traffic.
In same situation with Uber/Bolt, I leave it on afteral their money is counting, worst case is if I don't have enough fuel then I tell rider I don't have enough fuel and I have to turn off engine. I no say they go give me one star so no need to plead for it again. If fuel finish inside traffic, rider too go suffer na, so they understand.

The different skin is occasioned by the companies, so we play at their game. The one wey dey sweet me pass na wen rider say we should use uber/bolt map grin. Bolt map wey go say make u go pass oworo to go ilupeju from Berger/Magodo axis... The thing dey sweet me die grin grin
