And when the rider refuse to. You point gun to his/her head?
"An Adult should be responsible for his/her actions" but law enforcers will act like they don't know the right thing because they are hungry.
You won't move ni, one person have to budge for the other, either you end trip or he/she goes to the back.

I have no idea, gear moves freely without the need of pressing brakes to change (even before reverse got bad). And seems it was mistakenly put to reverse instead of neutral by someone I gave. Need a gear expert ASAP
I think its better for an expert to look into it, me to I'm looking for a gear mech... Have bit driver my Hyundai for a month, the last time I drove it, I takes time to select and make a sound before changing

Bro we are together. I carried 3 passengers from VGC to unilag, 2 girls at the back and 1 guy in front. 1 of the girl was on a very short skirt, she was sleeping with her legs resting on my chairs and the hand rest I had to check if she was putting on her slippers na so the other girl just wake her up to adjust herself say I Dey peep.

When I newly started this hustle I picked a lady from festac to Abule ijesha she had her breast and laps showing when she entered the car. Looking at my side mirror on her side I noticed she started adjusting and I just decided to use my rear mirror.

WOMEN ARE GENERALLY LIKE THAT AND ALSO SOME ASS HOLE MEN WITH PUSSY LIKE STRUCTURES
Lol, it is well... Before I prefer them at the front sit as I always believe sitting at the back is demeaning, but as man grow on this job, I just prefer dem at the back sit, I don't like any form of distraction or both of not being comfortable.

But why should the driver be held responsible for rider's failure to use seat belt?
As a driver its in ur place to tell your riders or anyone beside you to use the sit belt.

Had to wake the bad side of me today @ Oshodi on oyetayo street, was just coming in from Bolande while still angry for carrying a rider from Ojodu to Egbeda wouldn’t have carried her but had to take the trip because she was pregnant. From egbeda to Oshodi no single request, when I got to oyetayo street had to take a call so I pulled over that’s when I saw this guy inside keke park in my front was thinking he’s just highlighting but my eyes are on him, he came beside my car and knock at my windows because my doors and windows are always locked and I hardly put off my engine while working except in a conducive place, that’s how this useless taut was asking me where I’m going I just laugh and told him what’s his concern immediately I tried to move the guy in the keke tried to obstruct me with keke I hit the keke on purpose and put my vehicle on reverse I wanted to finish the keke once and for all snap it and report it as accident. That’s how the guy that came down started shouting ‘were leleyi oooo, fiii le fiii le’ in Yoruba language. The only God that saved them was that they didn’t stand in my front themselves, that’s how my bumper now has this little damage
Boss easy damage u car, I know dose guys can't make one to do the unimaginable, even since I to go fix car because I vex trying to clear them, I learnt not to damage valuable because of them, las las we go talk, either i refuse to pay or let go of some tin, but damage my car because of dem is a no no for me now. I don't respect touts, cos they get nothing on me.... Nah lasma b my greatest problem now.

Baba transfer her 1k for her base on agreement. Sorry for the loss. This is the reason I don't even want to know how wealthy you are when I meet you. Some persons no really like to use seat belts because they look their clothes too neat to be rumbled. Some girls self dey feel like e dey demercate their breeast hence no need to disfigure their looks because you're just a common driver, you don't have to tell her what to do.

My Pope, sorry jare, next time no gree for anybody, pay attention. Na so I dey do my own. Some self go begin operate radio, AC, Tapping glass, seat adjuster. I go just clear well ask...

HOW YOU WANT AM? then I fix wetin you want and we move.
There was no point she and I had an agreement, I only oblige to transfer, because I felt its nothing, but on true reflection, she was remorseful, she felt I've been favoured, cos if nor for her, I won't have been ticket. I just lost 5k because of her, if she part with 1k, I don't think it's too much of a sacrifice.

I normally check to see if riders fasten sit belt, but one of my weakness is minding my business if I have a female rider, I don't know if this happens to anyone, I always dislike when a lady starts adjusting because i'm trying to check my mirror, the way I avoid looking at dia side is next to none.

That is quite painful. I found it insensitive the way she refused to share in the liability. Very insensitive of her.
The way she carry on after all, left me in shock, she was just busy making phone calls like nothing happened. It was such a horrible experience driving from sura to langbasa, swimming d pools with car for nothing. Common words of comfort or sorry did not come out from her.

My matter don enter prayers, d rate at which I'm working for law enforcement is no more making sense. Got a trip to Ajah from Ikeja this morning, rider was a bit controlling on d phone, but I just over look it, when she entered I didn't even bother looking towards her side, not knowing she did not use sit belt. Lastma ard osborne apprehend us and start taking picture, before she realise she's the reason for d drama... I just felt weak and dumbfound, we got to their office, she called d lasma people she knw, they reduce charge from 20k to 6200, she turned to me that she has tried, her time is just burning here, I should give them 6k (Tough have cancel d trip)... I don't have cash at hand, so she lend me 6k. On our way, she said the trip is supposed to b 5/5200 so I'll have to transfer 1k to her, which I was just looking. I dropped her off at the end of addo road and I honestly don't feel like transferring a kobo to her, despite dropping her acct number. Back to mainland now and the zeal is not just dia to drive.

I don’t know why, but now I’m enjoying the platforms because I now choose when to drive.
Those bonuses are like rat race, no one wins it. And some strategy and idea a driver has may reduce his performance and income. For new drivers:


Eg:


1-You know all those drivers you met at inspection, that told you night driving would give more money cos there will be surge .... lmao! Na lié.

Spoilers: for a surge to happen , there must be a higher demand than supply. And at night , trust me , runz girls and party guys no reach drivers wey wan hustle. You’ll end up being tired , and less active when needed.



2- Chasng surge ; I know they told us all that surge is sweet and happens when drivers are not in a particular area.

Spoilers: yes it may be so, but with the massive pool of drivers , is rare not to have drivers in a place that will amount to very high surge . Surge usually happens when issues like traffic , flooding , or a very non motorable area has requests which may have stopped drivers from reaching there. It is a good way to make extra money , but keep all these in mind. No run from bicycle come Jan trailer abeg.


3- asking for ratings: I know they told you to request for rating right? My idea is , offer a good service , regardless of whom you’re serving. Trust me, not all will still like u, but yes , some will. Hopefully they remember to rate u.

Spoilers: people find it easier to give bad ratings than good. So just do yours and leave the rest.






And above all, remember when u were in your car sleeping , waiting for night rides, someone is in his house sleeping. And in the morning , when people are really “surging” out. With those headaches u have , that person that rested will have a better chance of cashing out the next day more than u....


Best of luck .
Real talk boss, the only time I sleep in the car is when I have serious bonus to catch up with or going to take break the next the and I find myself on the island, won't stress if I don't have trip back, I'll just wait till morning.

Can't remember the last time I ask a rider for rating and one of those things I've notice taxify do rate one as well.

I don't deliberately chase surge, if I find myself in Ikoyi, I smile cos I know dats zone for short trips.

Ever lifted boss, just felt bad, I know some rules and let my anger get the best of me.... Yesterday was sat, most of those guys on the road r not on official duty, even ticketing is till Monday, anything! anything!! They will take, but I just hate the sight of them or having altercations. One was busy shouting don't take anytin from him, office straight, I just crack a smile (initial gra gra), to me, they r just like take, let me b.


My greatest concern now is lekki flood, still don't know how I gross 70k without driving to lekki or paying tolls. Interesting week to say.

Can't b grateful enough dat I'm home ard 6pm today, it was such a day I don't know if I should place bad or good, but at a point I'll trade all just to be home... Around 12 I was at grammar SCH when this request (1.6) going to mariner beep, didn't know she was going into d market. On our way I saw the still traffic from Berger to the tip of oworo bridge, despite driving against it, I can't shake off the thought about how am I going to reach home today, end up dropping rider and enter into dose cb guys wahala, my offence I honestly don't know, the flood, rain and everything, thought off going back home just left me restless like who send me, I should have just stay back home like Cooladex and other drivers, but I felt like going to lere to chill with friends... My offence, deh said I beat traffic light, while I tot they jumped in front of me cos of one way (I honestly did not see any traffic light, not even before driving away from the spot ard martins street, as I was using d car in front of me to measure one way, whenever he cut, I follow). Flood everywhere and all I care about was to get the car out of the flood first before facing them, las las I didn't even bother wasting my time talking to the guy, just ask him what do you want? He said "if I do normal no problem", provokely I don't know when I handed over d 4k in the holder to him, the guy took it and even offer to help me get out of the flood. Drove down to Awolowo way and got a request to ICM, I drove through eko bridge, the kind of traffic I saw at fadeyi to Maryland made me to cringe, the whole of Ojota was completely block, how I got out of those traffic still left me marvel


In brief, if you stayed back today, you honestly lost nothing, forget the surge's, deh r mere trap. Total gross today was just 8400, but with fear and heavy heart, cos I honestly don't know what's in front of me.

i am tired of replying silly comments. this will be my last reply.
mi didn't evict jagz. jagz is a drug addict and he refused to go for rehab so many times.
if you are mi or choc city? what will u do?
about your brymo ish, that is pure lie.
brymo have made love n respect for mi, even his recent interview, he said he was grateful to m.i
n he wants them to wrk together again. if you are signed to label, if you break the law, u pay for it simple. obey the dos n don't, there is no family in business, business is business. without choc city, there will be no brymo.
passing leadership doesn't make u the owner. i gave u the keys to my house don't make u the owner, u will still need my permission do so almost everything. mi also passed the leadership to dj lambo abi u forget. don't blame the failure of artiste to their label, they should blame themselves fr their failure.
Like M.I u guys have a way of saying won't reply, soh what's d need for me to address this? Same point Vector is making, if you want to help, then help, don't make business out of it and say you r helping. Need you know, I'm down with M.I from imperfect me to brother those tracks r bad.

About Brymo... Ppl break up to make up, dose shit r normal in life, but I'm sure Brymo will forever have a tin on CC.

jagz has is own label under choc city, he decided to leave choc city and n go solo.
u wnt mi to beg him to return or u want mi to put his career on hold to help jagz.
jagz is a drug addict n a lazy guy. he is to blamed for his failure n nt mi,
the last tim i checked, mi was not the ceo of choc city.
vector said nothing tangible , he was busy explaining to mi like he was talking to his father lol.
vector fall hand. 3 diss track n mi knack you off with one song.
shame
Did M.I evict jagz from his house? Is dia anything wrong in having a label under parental label? check interscope, aftermath and Gunit. Who did Audu pass Chic city too? When Brymo and choc city/M.I were having issues, who was/is Jags supporting? Up till now Brymo still abuse M.I and choc city with every little chance he finds to slot in insult from In the city to Dem dey go (One of them either M.I/Ice is silly, the other is greedy, according to Brymo). He is not dissing M.i on dis track, but a reply to come clean M.I's lie, you need to Bizzle on Lucas devils work?

MI and Vector are not in the same category, MI is bigger and better than him. What annoys me most is that this Vector of a guy imitates Jay Z too much, why should I listen to him when I can listen to Jay Z himself....he might appeal to younger guys though, those who weren't in the era of Nas, Pac, Biggie, Dr. Dre, Snoop, Ice Cube, Lost boys, Jay Z, Diddy, Mase and other great rappers.
Just same way Jay imitate Biggie, M.I maybe more commercial and connected compare to Vec, Wbut when it comes to word play, give it to a vector.


What am I say, no one ever appreciate Nas, cos jayz is way commercial.
