Anybody hit by a car within 500 meters from a pedestrian brigde is liable to fine by the government and also fixing any damages to the car that hit him or her.

If the person dies, the family are equally liable,@izzou is very apt on this


Can you kindly quote the law that back your submission.

If you follow me closely you'd noticed I don't attend to enquires like this because I believe every answer you seek are already before you but due to laziness my people will not want to read but instead want instant result. This is the major problem we are presently being faced with in this present time.

This present generation want instant result which is even the reason most people prefer venturing into ehailing business.

But, as for question No3 I will only say this, don't go and buy a phone you will have to loose sleep over for qhile driving because using iPhone 7 is like parking Corolla on the street of mushin over night, they will not only get attracted to you but give your car maximum romance before daylight.

Just get a low key phone e.g Nokia 5


Na was for you oooo
So because someone is new on the platform u expect him or her to read over 2500 pages.

Guy relax.

If you ain't ready to give the info some other people will gladly do.

No dey feel like James Bond

Did the person you know knock someone down under a pedestrian bridge?

Because from this story, there is a pedestrian bridge there. It happened under the bridge.

Or that doesn't count in the court of law?


Whether under pedestrian bridge or not, the crime is man slaughter.

Even when u kill someone in self defence, you will still be charge for slaughter.

Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change its shape, area, and volume in response to a change in temperature. Temperature is a monotonic function of the average molecular kinetic energy of a substance. When a substance is heated, the kinetic energy of its molecules increases.

So I believe before your car got to you it has been in a very cold region where the crack first happened, so boss if you don't mind to know the full extent of the damage you can bring it over to open the top to access the damaged and removing the sump to check for metal shavings...

Good day
Please help with this.

Noticed this crack while mechanic was pouring engine oil some months ago.
What is the possible effect of this on the car and what could have caused it.
Bought the car a year ago as tokunbo from US.
Having being using hardex engine oil since I bought the car.
The car is a Toyota Camry 2003.
I can't say if this came with the car when I bought it.

Bro, you meant uber training is free. But inspection is carried out by Cars45 which used to be 2k

Where and at what stage of joining as a new rider is the training done.
Just done my vehicle inspection and had uploaded vehicle document about 2 months back.
Left with hackney permit and Lasdri.

So when is the uber training done and how many days does it take

AC is the main killer in this job.

And the only thing I achieved yesterday was paying some good fraction of my bolt debt.

Since yesterday was Friday I decided to drive base on some indicators which point to a bullish out at the end of the day.

Most people would want to go out and get money for the weekend.
Most people working on the island would want to come back home after their usual 1week around their offices.
Demands for humanitarian workers "olosho" is usually every Fridays.
Last opening day for market in the week.
et el.

Put on bolt apps which is uber and taxify. Mind you I didnt go out on Thursdays at all apart from driving to refuel at the filling station. I bought N1k fuel.

Now see how your AC is the main reason drivers are not netting reasonable income.

With approximately N1500 in my tank I didn't want to leave the house unless a request comes in, so, 1st request came in after about 1hr on taxify.

At first I was reluctant but drove to PU believing I could convince rider to go on offtrip since I was owning bolt N12,212. But unfortunately rider disagreed, its was a 3rd party ride. I didnt wanna start my day with paying debt knowing fully well I'm having just about N1500 pms in my tank with no other cash on me. So I drove off. That trip would have ended N2+. But no worries! I was positive to have a good day and I truly did.

The 2nd request came in on uber that would have been my 13th trip on uber for the week. Trip started without AC but as the traffic was building up with so much dust and heat and i notice rider(he) was contious with his phone and was sweating vigorously I then decided to put on the AC. Trip was from Scheme 1, Oko Oba,Agege to inside berger. Trip ended N1900

The next trip came in while I was get to end the 1st. At this time I didnt use AC but was a short trip still within inside Berger. The lady paid N500 still cash.

Drove from inside berger around the FRSC to ADDAS SuperMat Agidingbin, parked in their car lot for about 40min then the 3rd came in, babe was going to Adeniji Jones and trip ended N700 cash.
Still no AC.

I then on the AC a little due to traffic and drove, waited for some minutes with no show, driving to ikeja along a delivery trip to Osborne offshore estate, Ikoyi. No AC still and trip ended N2500.

Atbthis point my fuel indicator was then showing. Drove from there to NNPC b4 falomo. Bought N1500. Drove down to falomo close to the bridge then a trip came in on taxify, destination- Ajah.

Now; lets do the math.
All trips where cash uber trips.
1st trip = 1900
2nd trip = 500
3rd trip = 700
4th trip = 2500

Total = 4600.
Estimated fuel in Naira (N)= 1500.

Which brand of car do you drive.
Do you think a Camry 2003 will do all that trip with N1500fuel

Vision2045:


1. 1500 I think...not sure again

2. Local government is open but be sure who you hand out your cash to.

3. The business is currently in winter...so I will say...

If it's your car.. you go still dey okay small

If na rental .....be careful what you promise to deliver ... 30k (hell no) 25k (No No) 20k (No).. 15k (maybe)

If na HP.... I will advise you wait until biz pickup


Thanks the car is mine.
2003 Toyota Camry is viable for uber with reference to fuel consumption

Something is wrong with your car. Get it scanned don’t let Mechanics guess or throw parts without knowing what’s the problem. You’re supposed to be using between 6-7 liters for that journey.

Have scan over time and nothing is found wrong via scanning.
DD scanning at different place.
Only things that had been change on the car were the thermostat and AC fan
