That's because you're now an OG . Now I only check the map for traffic update and best route.

Even some riders will be like,"Oga are you sure you're following the map"

Very relatable.
And some riders go dey look you with one funny side eyes before they throw you that question (smiles).

Much respect, boss.

Kaymaxi2222:

Person wey we ask make him show us useful trips from his "order history" and na another thing him posted.
Make everybody sha go make their profits.
Any new driver wey seek for enlightenment go get am here..

Much respect, boss.

Omoapena:
I hate that noise from Google map, it annoys me and I don't keep my eyes on Google map, I just glance through the route it suggests and I know where to pass till I get closer to destination.

I don put my own G-map permanently on silence (muted).
As you said, na to just glance through it.
I hardly use map self except when I want to locate riders' streets.

Much respect, sir.

Obedibombedi:
Thank you for the clarity that those trips are for illustrative purposes only.
But in reality, they are Use-less trips.

Show us the useful trips from your order history make we learn.

Much respect, boss.

Omoapena:
bros, we were only trying to educate that new guy on how indrive works, that trips were just illustrations to educate the guy on trips that are good to accept and ones that are bad to decline.


he randomly screenshot those trips for illustration, you can see most of the trips pickups are far distance.

Much respect, boss.

Obedibombedi:
I won't drive 4.8Km, 27mins to pick a rider. Even if he's going to hea.ven.

Wth this statement, it shows you didn't understand the point we're trying to make out of the discussion.


Much respect, boss.

Omoapena:
this is what we are saying, the one you considered best is actually the worst here while the one you condemned is the best, 12800 from berger to VI is a very good price, and considering you won't be spending much time on the Job and you're sure of getting another better trip in VI.

that 7k to ago is worst, you will encounter traffic and that route the map showed there isn't advisable to follow at all, you will want to take ijesha to link Cele bridge which is longer and slower route.

Baba, when someone is picking a 50min trip for 7k and ignore a 43min trip @12.8k because it is 30km, what else can person say again?
We gats tell some people, on indrive, TIME is money, not kilometres or speedometer.
Him go learn the hard way.


Much respect, baba.

cyif2003:
D worst trip here is d 2nd one from Berger to island for 12k 30km.
Best trip to me is d 1st from tejuosho to ago place for 7k. Even d 3rd trip make better sense.


Generally I am after trip dat gives me 10k and above to areas where I can see anoda good trip....
Especially from mainland to island. Kus I will drive above 60km per hour which will help conserve fuel rather dan trips dat will make me drive slowly

I like your confidence. 😁😁😁😁

Much respect, boss.

This man wey dey look for Naira/Km on indrive go tey before him see ride.
You've got to be fast checking all these. Cos while you're checking and analysing the trip, other drivers don pick and go.
This Naira/Km doesn't work with indrive, what you should pay attention to is TIME of travel.
Now, check these below - which one would you rather pick?
Pay attention to the Naira per Km wey una ean dey use judge.

Thank you for the clarification boss, please I would
Like to ask you a question as a newbie on this job.

how much are you accepting per trip with it Kilometers? To enable you achieve the posted amount.

What’s the best time to work to achieve this ?

Please I do not not want to just accept trips and burn fuel ⛽️

You can inbox me with your WhatsApp number if you don’t mind boss mi.

Omoapena has done justice to your enquiry.
Furthermore, there's actually nothing like best time to work, because some people are night drivers while others do day driving.
Some start working as early as 6am and close in the night - what you need is to go out as early as you can and work till night, from there, you go know the best TIME for yourself.
Lastly, whatever you want to make enquiry about, always bring it here and get ideas from people.
There were some guys on this platform that were on my WhatsApp and they would be asking questions which I would give answers to my best knowledge, today, they are nowhere to be found. 🤷‍♂️
When you throw your questions here, you will always get the best answers to them.

Much respect, boss.

Even if anyone is having kidney transplant on the island today, is better to reschedule

Much respect, boss.

Thank God say I don come back mainland since.

cyif2003:
Also want to find out. Once I do hackney or lasdri. Even I I stop healing will I have to continually pay for it ?

Definitely, yes.
It's just like every other vehicle document that you have to be renewing yearly.
If they check your plate number that you have done it before, you're committed already.


Much respect, boss.

Olayetan:
haa, this your own kazeem na real quack o, you told him engine oil light was blinking and he told you the reason is because of fake oil.

Chai, once you see engine oil light comes on and off, you're not supposed to even drive the car at all, that's oil pump issue and your kazeem has successfully damaged your engine.

Make that brother just go ladipo for his engine.
@Jaysharp, just go find a good mechanic for your engine.

Ajibaiye:

Ajibaiye:
Nairalanders, do I need to find my wallet to start ehailing ? Can someone explain this to me too

Yes, you must always fund your wallet before you go start taking orders.
If your wallet is in zero, or negative balance, you must fund it back.
Additionally, city driving means taking orders and driving in the state you are.

Much respect, boss.

ksmart027:
But funny enough i have picked many riders with low ratings on bolt and the ride was splendid. Many of them end up tipping me.

Don't compare bolt with indrive in this aspect.
Maybe na cancelation dey drop some indrive riders' ratings.
I will comfortably pick a ride from 2.3 star ⭐ rider on bolt than picking from a 4 star ⭐ rider on indrive.
It is well.

Much respect, boss.

Omoapena:
third mainland bridge isn't working yet but mobolaji bank anthony is working along with alapere...

Thanks for the update.


Much respect, sir.

Omoapena:
blacklist with no effect.

Abeg shey the SL on third mainland bridge and Mobolaji Bank Anthony still dey active?
Cos e be like say na only me dey observe this limit.


Much respect, boss.

I really don't know what's happening to indrive riders' profiles, there are many riders with very low star ⭐ ratings.
Profiles with 2 stars and 3 stars just plenty like water, and they are real profiles.
To see 4.7 and above stars dey very minimal.
What I understand about rider's rating is that you will have low star rating as a result of driver's report (rating) on you - which shows that you were a bad rider.
Another thing that affects rider's star is how frequently you use the app to order - this actually isn't a yardstick, though.
But to get as low as 2 point Something or 3 point something star mean say you be serious case.
And for me, if rider's rating is below 4.5 ⭐, I no dey pick, except say you get plenty trips record under your profile and not below 4.3 star.
Omoh, the thing dey somehow.

Omoapena:
during closing hour in the evening when there use to be alot of traffic, I still go to island and I don't experience the traffic, only those who knows road will know what I'm saying.

reason why I avoid mainland trips totally is because of bad roads, is it possible to do a trip of 15k within mainland, any trip within mainland that will cost 15k without surge will definitely take you to outskirts of mainland, and you may find it difficult getting a trip out of that zone.

I prefer taking a trip of 18k to 20k from berger to orchid and look for another from orchid to ikeja for another 15k to 20k.

while I close for the day😁
I'm that lazy now, I don't hustle around anymore.

@the bold.
Show us the way, boss.

alaricsaltzman:
on indrive with very low, annoying prices? How you take run am??

Those low and annoying prices, just swipe them to the right, Lobatan.
