If u have a car come let me teach you for a token both manual and automatic.

Sorry my guy I hope I didn't spoil work for you.

But he can still contact u to master his hands very well but be ready to take responsibility should he run into an accident oh because you're his physical tutor

MrReeseG:
Meanwhile, make una no laugh abeg

Can anyone recommend any driving school to me? Where I can learn to drive and they'd probably help me do my license once I'm done.

Oga just go and get ur drivers license, if you already have a car just carry am enter road.
Press the pedal on your right feet t9 move while the gear is on D then press the
left pedal to break, slow down or stop.

To reverse pls press the left pedal down then move the gear stick to position R then release the break gradually then press the right pedal gradually to move/accelerate.

Do all of this using yiur right foot.

To turn left
Push the traficator stick beside the steering wheel down
Push up to turn Right.

Makenuse of your rear mirrors to view cars, bike keke or korope behind and beside you.

Be confident and stay hold to yiur steering wheel while you maintain your lane by sticking right on a two lane. Maintain right also on a one way road or express.

This tutorial is worth 50k but i give you freely for being a member of the hoodlums riders and also of this great thread.

You can contact our president for cherfulgiver for defensive driving pattern

MrReeseG:
Also. What's this thing with drivers clicking "arrived" on their app when in actuality they are still far off

That's how this one clicked arrived, I went downstairs and started looking for motor I no see ...
Called and asked and he said "I'm almost there" I asked why he did "arrived" when he hadn't gotten here "Oga! You want my money to go up abi?" He said "Go up ke, highest it will go up by 40-50 naira... You this riders self". I waited another 15 minutes before this man show.

We need to initiate you into our hoodlum group to become a hoodlum rider

Next time just cancel Immidiately you see him then reorder again but note, you maybe be unlucky oh especially if the 1st request was surge free so price may be higher if you request again... You may also be lucky as well tye price may drop. You'll get him since he's closest to you

On the aspect of "where are You" question.

That was how one id.iot requested andbthe first quest was
"Oga where are you?" I was then wondering weather bolt has added "Oga" to the phrasal question?! I didn't even answer her till she called.

Another thing that annoys me, why is it that most of you riders will request and won't call instead will be texting, do you expectbthe driver to be replying to text while driving?

You have data which can as well serve to call if you don't have airtime but most will prefer to chat you u... I don't even bother reading it.

kanuisagoat:
Didn't Felicity just come up with a new account? What did Bolt do? They rewarded him N25000 bonus for getting blocked. Me self no go mind getting blocked

Summary is nobody send Bolt block again

The Nigeria government is rather making us smarter and thougher to be able to survive in any situation we find ourselves.

Why would you arrest a law abiding citizen that has done virtually nothing just because a criminal reported he's too hard working? What would you expect him to when the jail gates are wide open, remain there? No! I had to find a means to beat the system to stay afloat.

Mum gonna eat and take her medication
Wifi gonna be taken care of
The kids have to look good and go to school
Rent has to be paid
Loan has to be serviced
Bills have to be paid
Youve got to help the less privilege

How will I do all of these without earning a living even when the government has failed in all ramifications to provide job even after bagging a 2nd class upper.

I have to do what I had to.
No apology on that.
If they block this account again? I will get another one.
Lets all put the country on fire let it kukuma burn down to ashes.

Pearl1910 can you explain this how this rating dropped to 4.50 from 5.0 barely a week later you guys will say its average of 40 rated trips. Same thing thw bolt customer care I talked with some weeks ago said.

Lie lie app... It seems Bolt is paying uber commission if not I dont see any where they can stand with Uber.

Rubbish app... That was how they gave me 40trips for a bonus of 25k in 7days all of a sudden 7days turned to 3days and the campaign bonus disappeared into tin air.

I'm sure lieing Muhamed is the CEO of this Bolt app.

VaselineCrew:
If another rider asks me “what is the color of your car?”, I just may lose my mind.

I was so frustrated yesterday, my ratings on bolt have dropped from 5 to 4.9, na wa...

I can’t tell who gave me the one stars but I know for sure this one lady did.

First she called and asked “where are you?”, and I was like can’t you see me on your map?

Then when I got to her pickup, she was like what is the color of your car? My head just dropped.

I mean unless, the ride was ordered for you, why will you ask me for my car color when everything should be on the app? Or isn’t it on the app? I haven’t used bolt as a rider before, only Uber.

I kept mute when she asked for my car color, then when she finally entered my car, she was like you are rude. I knew the one star was already sure, so I just dammed the rating consequences and told her that it’s a very annoying question if she was the one that booked the ride. I told her all my information including my name should be on her phone.

She then said what if I came with a different car? I was like why would you enter a car that is different from the one on your app? Why would the app show Benz as pickup and the driver shows up in a Yota and you will still enter?

Anyways, bad mood is hopefully gone and I can get back to 5 stars, cause usually I don’t let things like this bother me, but yesterday, I was so short fused and was tired of all the stupid questions.

Where are you?
What is your name?
What is the make of your car?
What is the color of your car?
....

Lol...

Guyndey para but why e b say na Benz you come use as analogy and not tye popular Corolla Benz in ur mind i guess.

About the question [b]where are you [/b]I think I'm beginning to get over it because it's seems it's a default on the bolt app because that's the same question these riders use even when they chat you up. So tye thing no dey bother me again

Pearl1910:
Better days ahead ke.
On Uber, u can't get it better after this season.
If drivers are still suffering now, then there is no hope for Uber again. I can feel Dailyparrots pain and sadness in his words and story. It would have been better if he used Indriver.
Chillex, Tunlapapa and Felicity u guys have questions to answer for all d praises o. Or could it be that u r just pursuing 20k bonus and not making real money for yourselves?

Sorry I don't know what you're talking about. I've stated it here severely no loyalty in this game weather to the app company o, owner partner o, filling station, part seller, mechanic or rider no loyalty at all... I only go with what work best for me... Even while on 2% on Sunday I still shuffled trips with Bolt...

Wisdom and street wiseness is needed in this racket else rider will show you something.


I experience something almost similar with chioma on Uber yesterday... This davido bae use me shine sotey for the first time I shouted on a lady rider in anger. She requested and I was in Lyta gowon est side and she was at Divine Plaza side Egbeda junction. Almost getting there thru d bad road this bae cancelled... What! I was not too worried because its was a 1.1 Surge to lekki. She quickly requested again and I accepted and by this time it came with 1.8x for my kind you think say u wise abi u go hear am today. I called I was outside this bae said she was coming... 15min no show she cancel again.

Requested with another account and I accepted this time she said she could see and coming I was annoy at this point and you know since it's uber the wait time already start counting so I said let me be patience because I just wanted to leave the mainland.

I fired up my bolt app and the PU distance was above 1.7km... I just dey do calculation for my head... As this bae called I shouted at her... She was Just pleading sorry sorry... Finally she came out and we enroute on 1.6x.

Traffic tie wrapper yesterday. Na so madam say shes not going again. [b]You don't mean it! I [/b]almost cried.

She requested I drop her off by a nearby hotel let her make booking... She already apologise for all the happenings b4 but as she cancel her trip again menh I went back to limp mood.



To be continued.

Watch out for part 2 because this davido bae is about to become an oven.
No she just cant stress my life like my village people.

Josephase:
Lol.... whenever a rider ask if I can pause the ride in traffic, I just tell them yes and close google map showing them it's possible. Nah me you wan leave inside traffic abi

Haha... You crack me up with that line... Close Gmap

Nigerians shall... Just imagine the level of illiteracy at its peak.

bolutic:

This one na korope na... Tye motor no get wahala at all.

Craigbrown4076:
I haven't bought it yet.

Thank you so much.

If ehailing is part in plan then look for anything within 2.0L, 1.8L or 1.6L all 4cyls.

Mind you the federal government is making plans to increase pump prices and I see no form of increment by the app coys that can help to complement the effect cause by the increment.

Cost of parts will shoot up, cost of maintenance will shoot up and there will decrease in patronage and high influx of new drivers due to the overwhelming labor market and lost of jobs to folding up of companies due to high running cost.

Lets brace up for a more difficult time come 2022 if the government takes this action.

E go red!!!

olukaygold:
Boss pls lets chat on WhatsApp 08162907678

Ha! Chat for this season of surge?

BAZ001:

Bolt apologized and said they will do bla bla...
if we all keep reporting bad riders it will be easy for Felicity001 to drag dem out of his car and not be judged but Ants rope tying Corolla trunk will be ass licking them

I don't gerit!

73O9:
For the lady to have been deactivated, there must have been several reports concerning her.
In essence, the driver will only be partially at fault if investigation is to be done.

In fact the story self get as e be... He complained of low fare, and charge differently(offline) or what? she tried to cancelled, how? After the trip has been completed or b4 starting the trip or could it ne be that the lady refused to pay the fare or agreed sum? I don't gerit! I should forget abourit? How did the insult get to that extent that blood come involve?

Abeg those 2 should tell us something else pls.

This us definitely not adding up at all

olukaygold:
Boss! Are you talking about this? This is 2006 model with 6cylinders but the dealer said he’s 4cyl as well… still doubting the level of fuel consumptions compare to Corolla though

I can't tell weather it's 6cyls or 4cyls but one thing is sure all 4matics are 6cyls so of its 4matic just leave am and for the fuel consumption you won't know until you've used both cars.

Olayetan:
Pilots, help me thank God, I almost lost my car to fire today around ikoyi axis of Lagos.

My car just stopped on motion and started smoking seriously, at some point, I was numb and don't know what's happening, then I quickly snapped out of the shock and disconnected the battery contact.

This is the fate of my car now, thank God the damages hasn't gotten to the brain box, only the wires was burning before I took action.


May we not loose what we labour for in seconds ooo...

I'm still in shock as I type this.

Thank God for safety.

DMechyy:
Check your door jam.

The region of manufacture will be stated.

You can also use the first number of the bin to know.

American spec vehicles start with 1,4, or 5
W is Germany.

So if your VIN starts with 1,4, or 5, it is American spec.


PS: even if you tell them the right spec, they will still give you a wrong unit. Carry your old Fuel Assy to get another.


Best bet is to buy a new Unit, all this American spec or Europe won't play, all you need is your VIN

Send yours, let me see if it is in stock

Dmechy always to the rescue, he doesn't just render solution but also accompany it with lots of educative spices. Double twuale to you boss, ur boy is loyal Sir.

Lush100:
Felicity u go kill person

Unfortunately the faaji is taking place in ibadan on the 27th (Monday).
I wanted to discuss something on ehailing with you but i recently struck a biz deal which has taken the capital off my hands.
But i am trying to divest from another one(bcoz ROI is a bit lower than expected) i am doing to raise the capital although i haven't informed my biz partner as i want to get my December payment b4 i do.
Let me just stop here

peeps4u:
Don't drive when you drink.

Besides, Assuming you have a little encounter with another road user, they will assume you're drunk if alcohol oozes out from you

4 Only 1 bottle, inside naija? Its only in western world you're not allowed to taste even a drop of alcohol related drink b4 driving because they have alcohol detector tools they use to run check onnthw road if suspected. To some extent self you can be given a waiver if you pass the white line test.

But in naija 1 bottle is normal

I remember some years ago I was travelling to One of the Niger Delta state and I carried some Jack Daniel I will use to clear road and flex when i get to my destination... Na for ojodu Berger those police men by the junction to the Express I start to share am, b4 i reach Benin one bottle don finish.
