This is one mistake drivers do. Owners self know work don't just start from the day the driver picks up the car or signs the agreement yet they will say "contract commenses on the date the document was sign", what nonsense! foolish lawyers with their copy and paste approach. Most of them don't even consult any lawyer self they just collect some copies from people already in the business and then edit names, addresses, plate number and account number some of them even don't remember to edit the car type, juries contacts and address.

Drivers self because of desperation they just sign without even reading detailed clauses.

Normal normal, every HP or rental agreement papers should give room for elapses like,
-restriction of movement in the state of operation.
-curfew
-illness
-holidays
-ceremonies
Among others,

okay because I'm renting your car or buyimg through by HP I should or can't go for burial ceremonies, weddings or I can not take sick or maternity leave or rest ba?? You try.

All of these things should be stated clearly so no payment should be expected on the course of any of these circumstances.

OP, if you know what's good for you better go review that contract again and let there be adjustment where necessary b4 you waste you life for free.
You forgot to mention you are going to drop d car in care of the owner on these said days. Just passing by, I have a meeting with delightful toys.

I use 03 to 05 Honda civic for uber ..very strong and reliable cars for uber ..... I have never used 06 or 07 for uber ... But from others that have used it is very ok and strong .........

The Honda Civic transmission will not take abuse lightly .. It will end in highest grade of premium tears. So make sure you use the recommended transmission fluid at all times ..look for reliable source when the times comes .. From experience I can't vouch anyone anymore ...... I do bring them on request and Radauto sells them........

The Honda Civic engine can tolerate abuse.. But please don't abuse it . the are good engines and last a long time if properly taken care of . I will advice to use full synthetic oil 5w20 always...again source from genuine and trusted dealers on nairaland .......

Shey...for someone who is advocating for cheaper cars ba. grin grin
But for real that car will give u poor rating and it doesn't have prestige. I don't recommend that car, even though it thicks all d boxes. But for prestige, class and self confidence. Don't say these are not necessary since u r using it for taxi business. If u r a driver u will understand. 06-08 Civic is a better choice. That's why some of us are looking for alternative to corolla. Corolla don cast, anywhere u go, even when on ur private waka, security, car park people, police, lastma, agbero, danfo all think u r uber
Boss say what you know biko, civic won't give you prestige out of ignorance and Nigeria mentality. If you see someone that have used 02/04 civic, trust me! They we beg u to treat it well, nah machine. I've seen folks walked up to me and like wow! This is one of the neatest civic they have seen and how dey love their own. But when you see someone that have not use a car before or the civic in particular, they kind of frown face like big daddy is everything and me I don't like that big daddy for anything, it makes me feel like I'm about to hit my head on the screen.

As for review, what I get sometimes r, your car is low and what year is this? So uber accept 99 cars now. Me! Look them with straight face, oga!!! But for rating, guess the below pix will do d talking irrespective of not doing more than 5 trips a day and technically offlines most times.

I have said this over and over again. Learn to think outside the box. Like 2 months ago, my hub started making that stupid noise, I changed the whole assembly except ball joint for 5k. Yes, you heard me right. My car engine(borale), thats engine without gear and other accessories cost less than 100k. My AC compressor is 20k. I got the car 9ja used for 800k. I 've used it for a year without any serious repairs done just normal wear and tear. Fuel consumption is at per with corolla, ruggedity is very okay too, Not a boring car, handling on high speed is superb. Infact you'll be tempted to keep pressing the gas pedal till you reach 260km/h if you're not disciplined. My point is, how can you have 1m and still be doing rentals or looking for higher purchase with a deposit of 1m. Is your village people after you? With your 1m, commot like 50k keep for one side for gazzuzz to help inspect Cars within that range that can fit for the hustle. There's nothing as sweet as driving your own car on this hustle. There are times I do 1 to 2 weeks not driving when I feel like taking a break, I work at my own time. For a while now, I've sticked to indriver only cos of the freedom the app offers. I value/ enjoy my peace of mind.
I don't like dragging pespective with ppl, cos I'm of the opinion that all man is entitled to what works for him, I just hate when someone tries to foster his or her opinion on others.

It calls for concern when some says he used 1m to fix a car within the space of one year. The only question that crosses my mind is, how much does in make in a year? My first car did not cost me up to a million, the same car produce the money for the second one and it's still very much Ard. The second one have produced money for the third one if I so wish( I appreciate the fact that I'm on kind of profit race henceforth with the kind as cost of investment has been over meet). I have changed the gear once after a year usage for 90k and that can happen to any car. The only issue with the car now are the legs from shocks to lower arm bushings, probably linkage and the oil seal leakage. Best if I can push for baking as well. All this is not up to 150k after using it on the roll of 2 years. No regrets atall

This is annoying, for every trip rider cancels or driver cancels, they will charge you the commission n direct it to refund while you won't be able to take next trip until you replenish your account again.


I'm so deleting that app now, thats just pure nonsense.
If rider cancel as quick as booked, they won't remove ur coins. Just chill till a month and see who played who Las las.

That's the experience now on Indriver. I was even debited for trip I cancelled since rider no pick call. The debit didn't go to my refund. Na so I chatted them up. But they remained adamant. We just need more options.
As my oga wey u and eyinola b, let me share this. Tho, I'll advice don't abuse it. On indriver u most b willing to sacrifice and try as much as u can to b accurate wit arrival time. Don't ever use the false order or complain about passenger tab, else you dash indriver free money. Pick ur request, try as much as u can to get to pu on time, arrive and don't move an inch, while waiting for rider. If you notice, the ride is going to b troublesome one, gently tab on the passenger did not show when u r abt to embark on d trip, that way rider have no leverage to rate you. Anything outside this? Just b looking for way to ease the rider's mind, cos nothing person never see for this hustle. Rider cough, u didn't say sorry, u will just wake the next day to see "Rude driver, I coughed, he can't even say sorry".

If u r super late to pick up, don't stress arriving, take rider to destination like that. On getting dia, tab arrive and wait for 5 mins before cancelling. Nah over do make agbero load bus full finish, come use leg dey go house, so learn to strike balance on this

The day Dru23 opened his mouth and said that he's now looking for alternatives to Mobil 1, was the day I lost respect for him as an enlightened being.

He's an American citizen (not sure) , he has an advantage to a better life than an average Uber driver (not sure) . But the fact that he can afford an oil of 20k, made him forget that most people can't, regardless of how much they love and would want to protect their cars. Forgetting that all fingers are not equal.

He's not looking for an alternative now because Mobil 1 is bad. He's looking for an alternative because he can't afford it anymore. Yet; people that are far better than him, that can afford it are still buying it.

It takes a myopic brain to think and act such way; without being considerate and flexible, knowing the economic situation of the country at present.

One love bro @dru23

Yes, I actually saw those when I ran through your posts.

What I actually need is just the oil and filter without the service.
Bros if u service, ur car no go start again grin

Mine pick d wrong time to start lickin, not up to a week I service the car and I noticed. Mech said it's one of the seal, we will drain the oil and put it back, I don't like such. I bought 1 little to see if I can use it to b topping it till time to change oil, then I can fix it. 1 little can't last 5 days before it drop to last point. I have to fix that and service again this week. Painful! But have learnt to see all these as necessary sacrifice to put my office in order.

Are there drivers that actually accept these trips?

Some will say they are going towards that direction but they are only encouraging the riders to put even more ridiculous prices.

I was once at a mall and set destination towards my place one evening. You know what bolt sometimes does, you'll set destination and they'll still be giving you stupid trips. I just allowed it ring out.

One woman beside me who heard it ring now came to ask if it was bolt. I said yes, she asked if I've gotten ja request and I told her I let it ring out because I'm looking for a better trip towards my house. She now said she was going along the same route and that how much will I take to drop her.

Told her N2500 and the woman was like, shey I said I'm going home already and with or without her trip, I will still have go go home. Madam, that one no concern you o. Its N2500 or nothing.

She left me there and I continued hunting. Ended up getting a N3300 from bolt.

That I'm already on my way home does not mean I'll take a useless trip. I will rather blow empty back to the house.
I suffered same fate yesterday, but no wahala. Set and done to go home yesterday from VI, so I check my map Ard 5pm and saw 1.20 mins to berger going thro 3rd mainland. So I said to myself, no yaba or surulere trip today, anything outside this route I'm not going. Gbam! I got a trip going to akinpelumi inward ikosi. Got to pick up, rider came out with one girl. Oga! U will take Ikorodu road, she need to drop at barracks. I look back, u deh whine me ni? Sorry, I can't do that... wit attitude I say this, girls r stupid, b4 jack, she started ranting what do u mean, blabbing and guy man knows what I'm hitting at, so he was just findin a way to make me accept his offer by saying he will add 500 to d 3k, while d stupid girl kept saying why? For what? I just ignored her. Told d guy, I can't unless he is adding 1500 to the trip, from VI to surulere is 1.10 mins and I'll now face d undefined Ikorodu to ojota traffic, my back is hurting me already. Nigga add another 500 hundred, told him I'm not going to anywhere less than what I told him. They end up alighting while looking at me like, this one mad ooo. Nonsense indriver deduct 300 to refund in a month for such situation, but it's all good, if drivers can stand their ground, riders will act right.
