Good morning guys. Please this would be a little long. I just want you all to thank God for saving me from bondage the devil planned for me today.
I started work 7am today and I got my first trip to Ejigbo. It was a smooth ride and as soon as I got to the destination, I got another trip from Ejigbo. I was to pick up the rider in about 15 minuets and I called the rider to inform her that I am on my way and she said she is waiting. I got there and called her that I am outside only for her to tell me that another driver picked her. I was really mad at her but guess what? We move. Not up to 5 minutes, I got another trip going to AIT road and I picked up the rider and the journey began.
Now this is where the devil started his work while on that journey

About 20 minutes into the journey while I was approaching Ekoro road, I police officer was riding a bike and her was in front of me, as I was about to overtake him, without no one touching him, himself and the bike fell down right beside me. I thank God it wasn't when he was in front of me that he fell, if not I would have crushed him right there. I just continued my journey since I didn't touch him and that was it. Again, on getting to Ekoro road, I was making a U-turn to face Meran. I just finished making the U-turn and from no where, I bike was coming with full speed and it was again by chance that he wasn't crushed, in fact people were already putting hands on the head but again, I thank God for escaping that again so I continued the journey.
Finally, I got to my destination and I ended the trip and the rider paid me. As I left and hoping the get another trip, something happened again for the 3rd time which could have been the worst issue in my life and would put me in a big mess for a long time.
I was just going gently and for me the road was clear and I didn't see anyone in front of me only for me to hear people shouting very loud at the top of there voice. I just stopped immediately and was wondering what the problem could be. Behold, a child of probably 2 years old was right in front of me and my tyre was about to climb her head. The tyre has already touched her head and it's just to climb it that remains. When they brought her out, there was already blood in her mouth but I thank God is wasn't that bad. I was shaking
People rushed out to find out what happened including my previous rider and everyone was just thanking God both for me and the child. My rider just told me to go home and pray that I am under an attack and that how could such near miss occur 3 times on a row. I just put off my app and proceeded to my house.
I am at home as I speak and I will be praying and making consultations.

I am sharing this because we all need to be very prayerful at this job and in our life in general. If any of the 3 near miss have turned out to be fatal, what condition would I have been right now?

Please help me thank God for saving from from distress and bondage.
May we never find our self in a problem that would render our lives useless in Jesus name.
Bruv am speechless right now. Please take some time off, to pray and thank God cos he is faith full.
And take some time to sleep, eat and replenish your energy.

Peace

Sorry! I can feel ur pain, ard 3 yesterday I took someone to Greenland from Berger, it took me 2 hours 40 mins to get there. Story short, I'm still in Lekki phase 1 around 11pm, so I decide to sleep in 1004 and move the next day. I move lagos from morning to 3pm no mainland trip. Tot of calling it a day kept flashing in my mind, until I got this trip to ikeja from Palace Rd. I jump on it like a speed racer, even the rider was calling me all thro till I get to d gate and she talk to the security man. I got to PU and notify her as well... 15 mins gone, she yet to come out, so I gave a call, only to hear this faint voice, I tot have cancelled cheesy I don't even know what to say, I just disconnect the call. Heading straight home like this, while battling if I should forgive her or pay back.
cool i wud love a payback

Hi guys,just here to share my experience.
So some days back when I was in lagos,I took a bolt from yaba to Abule Osun (cool guy came after several attempts because every person kept declining),got to abule Osun(wasted the guys time oo because we had to wait to pick something up,more than an hour),then he took me to Jibowu to waybill the stuff,the guy actually waited again and helped me a lot with the whole work,then from there we headed for VI Kofo abayomi side,only to get there and bolt gave final bill as N4700 shocked shocked
I was like what? cheesy
The guy actually said let him refresh that it happens like that sometimes,after refresh still N4700. cheesy
I am a very humane guy(though I really hate religion and all their crap) and unto say me and the guy don connect wella inside motor plus all the help he gave to me,I handed him 8k grin
He say ahh chairman add something for me na,I topped 1k for him making it 9k.
Now leaving the connections aside and the help he gave to me ,
On a normal day,would it cost N4700 to make all these trips or was bolt actually faulty and cheated the guy?
Just curious as I am not lagos based.
Thanks.
Am very sure sey the guy phone is not good.

I have told drivers to always ensure the phone u use determine the trip price. Things like ram, phone storage, phone network and most especially GPS quality.

Not all phones are built equally some manufacturers focus on camera e.g alhaji tecno and his brothers grin while some focus on chipset and other hardware parts e.g apple

D driver was disappointed wen he say the price. Thank God the rider is not an oven if not na 4000 he go collect.

I believe y d driver still asked for more was out of frustration

In other news, it finally opened this morning and i saw 10,000, dated 01/07/2019. 8.09 Blacklisted (it's in orange colour).
Well I'm not paying shishi till they send me personal message. What a lazy and useless organization.
To me i feel that site is a scam oo cos. Look at the site very well it’s not a secure site.
How can Lagos state not use a secure site to collect money and can’t even invest in sms to notify the traffic offender. No awareness so that motorist will Be aware.

I disagree with you. The man ordered the ride. He paid for it. Whoever rode it is not the driver's client. What if he was asked to deliver something, will the "something" be his client? And remember, the man can report to Uber/Bolt or whatever, the ladies can't.
I get Ur point bruv, but do u know ideally and legally ehailing is not for pacel deliveries but passengers. The person u carried at a point in time is ur client not your app account holder cos d app is just a bridge to bring a passenger and a driver together. Lets use a normal and popular scenario where u call a bike man to come carry ur babe go where she go enter bus, the babe is the passenger not you that called the bike man.

Like i said earlier, d Driver over heard something and he felt to let the account owner know which if he didn’t call him nothing still spoil.

The man can’t even dare report the issue to bolt, cos he was not aware wat was looted by the overnight ovens he hosted if not the driver called him.

I picked these 2 girls at Cadogan Estate on Sunday. The trip was ordered for them by the person they came visiting. I guess the man left them in his apartment before stepping out. Na so dem pack his drinks o. About 4 bottles of wine. The trip was on card. Na so they wan go everywhere. Las las we had about 4 stops before the final destination.

I was with another trip to Ikeja when I sighted the drinks in the car. Sharp guy that I be, I called the man immediately instead of them. The man was livid. He asked how many bottles and pleaded that I should call him whenever I'm around the place.
Hours later one of the ladies called me. I let her know I already called the man. She pleaded with me too to call her anytime I'm around her place instead of the man.

She has called me twice after then. I told her to make an arrangement for delivery as I work only on the mainland. But she appears reluctant.

What do you guys think?
For me i think d ladies are your client not the man cos truthfully it’s the ladies u carried not the man. Since u have already called the man u just have to return it to d man. But i feel why u called the man first was maybe u heard the ladies discussing about the loot and you were not ok with it.

My camry 03 is serviced regularly as at when due and at 280000 miles. The issue comes - during only cold starts in morning. Crank the engine, it fires up, but immediately revvs fall to 200-300 rpm and then engine shuts off. If i crank the engine again after a while, it picks up revvs this time and idle rpm settles to about 1000-800 rpm - after which i am good to go.

I suspect this is a sign of something going to fail soon , and this issue comes *only* during cold start in mornings.

What could be causing this.

Any suggestions?

You don't use AC when you drive alone?
huh
Na so u like suffer? Baba enjoy the AC, it's not only meant for your riders the sun is too much naa cheesy
Using AC is not about wealth but health. See it’s not healthy at all to be in refrigerated air for too long cos of bone density later in life.

I use ac at extreme hot weather only and at home too but not for show of.

So my advice is earlier is on how the driver can minimize fuel consumption not as u stated.

As for me if am alone in d morning and evening i don’t use my Ac, cos i so much love the cool breeze.
