My reverse gear [corolla] is not smooth, delays so much that I have to pedal down sometimes, before it selects. Do you know any ⚙ gear expert in Ladipo?

Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by BoboKush(m): 2:29pm On Sep 13, 2021
I notice my car start from any gear
Normally I think car should start from neutral or park

But currently even if I off the car on drive
If I start it.... Its work and move immediately

Should I be worried?

You want to start driving soon, so I'm telling you from experience now.

Beware of riders that put roadside or popular landmarks as their PU

Most of them put similar locations as destination

Most of them are unusually nice and friendly

Most of them do transfer and because they are nice and friendly you too will want to pay back in kind if alert doesn't drop on time.

That's how most riders scam scam drivers with fake transfer. There are some that have good intentions like you, but the ones with bad intentions outnumber the good.

I have peace of mind to an extent if I pick you from a place I can trace you to if something goes wrong. I hope you get my point now

A quick update on my experience doing uberbolt so far

I got a Nigerian used Honda city 07 at a cheap price did the papers and servicing


Friday i didn't work cos i discovered i drive back empty from where a trip ends to my house when its becoming 3pm to attend to my other hustles.


Veterans in the house especially people in the ant's league please advise me. What am i not doing right
What to do for instances like this is to set destination to where you intend going.
You will surely get trips going that route rather than driving empty.

My fear really is not the pick up time and distance, i know what i drive most times on indriver to pick a rider. Mostly what i fear is the destination. Nothing fear me pass unknown destination like free knacks laced with sweetie.

Fun fact. I used to only ask destination at night. The uncertainty of picking random people going to random places gave me some weird kind of kick. I'm a very curious person and that randomness is one of the perks of the job for me. It very interesting.

Do you start while on drive?

Cars don't start on gear being engaged unless in neutral.

Which ever the case may be just make sure you attend to it b4 it gets worst.

Guys watch out for any girl that sits in the front seat and is making a video (snapchat)

So a couple of weeks back, I was riding with a female rider who sat in front, around Governors Lodge at Marina where there's a concentration of lastma officials, the lady was a making a video then all of a sudden I saw the passenger seat belt light blinking, quickly looked at her, madam Don remove belt. I told her to put it back ASAP. One of the lastma guys saw everything, he gave me warning sign without stopping us. The girls excuse was that the seat belt was obstructing her video.

It happened again today. Heading to airport, we got to Admiralty traffic light, POLO G was blasting from the speakers. Kpakam, babe has removed seat belt and was about to start making Snapchat video.

Ahh no be like that now.

Told her to put it back sharp, when we get to 3MB I will slow down for and replay the song for you to do whatever you want to do.

She now asked if it was an offence if she didn't use it, that shebi it's road safety officials that I'm supposed to be worried about.

She sounded so naive. I had to educate her about the usefulness of the seatbelt.

There was this lady I picked from BookShop, Broad Street last week, immediately she entered I expected her to strap up but she made no attempt. I quickly drew her attention to it.

Guess what? She was actually on a ride with another driver, she didn't use the belt and lastma arrested the guy and went away with the car hence she booked another ride which I happened to take.

The only time you are allowed to spend more than 30secs in my car without using the seat belt is if we are still within your Estate.

At the bolded, that girl must be a road safety official related...

Come to think of it, it's a safety rule and not a LASMA rulegrin and road safety are not meant to be on state roads but federal roads and from 4pm. But I think the LASG won a case for FRSC to leave all roads in her state for them to manage which they channelled every power unto the LASMA during the then Gov. Fashola

But men, we don't have right in nigeria jor.

She may be ignorant of the safety rules but I bet you she's smart because she knows the law squarely.

Road safety officials are usually not on Lagos state roads.

Besides, most olosho riders are confident of bolt drivers.

Its a good thing you did there and I encourage the act.

Don't get me wrong with my previous posts about the girl's awaremess or knowledge she's right in the supreme and you too are right in the high Court. Take it further she wins.

But anybody that sits in the front seat and refuses to put in the seatbelt should sign a death warrant or will so that you the driver won't be held responsible for any misfortune.

Never reject a trip, even if you don't want to embark on it.
Either you arrive and wait for 5mins to cancel or you allow rider cancel.

Do this for a week and thank me later.

It worked. Currently on 4.98. Thanks

Well, I'm not selfish, I have made a promise to share my experiences freely without asking people to DM where as they have interior motive either now or the nearest future.

I'll make a post on how you can manage your body very well. Don't believe those that says, "drink plenty of water" it's good for the eyes true! But my guy na lie if 45minutes traffic hold you untop 3MDB nko? Shey you go carry ur kampanonus come outside to release the tap water?grin so you don't want an embarrassing situation. You want to be active while on trip... Unlike me that can hold wee for up to 2hrs, i won't compare or advice the next man to drink plenty of water not knowing h/s can't hold same for even 20 minutes.

You need to understand somethings.

The hustle na head e dey, God has program this life you can live a 100 and 20 years if you have the understanding of ling life. Many rich people don't have it but we the few that has thank God.

Wisdom is a fortunate gift.

grin Chief I've done it before one time like that before I joined the hustle. I was heading to a conference in VI, naso this piss hold me ontop 3MB at a time when google map was saying "you are in 59 minutes delay". Early morning rush hour.

I cleared off the road, put on hazard light and went behind the car to do my thing.

Another time I was travelling out of lagos, from the island I decided to use Eko bridge to connect ikorodu road, that time when 3MB was under maintenance. Got to funsho Williams Bridge around 8am, naso I jam this evil traffic, stand still. There's this urine that has been holding me from house but I was in hurry to beat traffic, my plan was to stop at a Kara before Longbridge to ease myself.

I couldn't hold it anymore. I told my babe who was still a learner as at them to come sit behind the wheel incase the traffic starts moving grin

E get some piss wey go hold you, you go find how to let it out. Bladder they expensive o

Last week sef I told a rider to wait for me make I use the chicken Republic restroom before we proceed on the trip. Na human being I be no be robot.

Another potential health risk in driving is not eating a good breakfast. It affects your decision making (Headaches), it is bad for your health. If trip don dey enter back to back time flies before you know its noon.

If you skip breakfast, try take a break to put food in your tank. E get why don’t wait till evening, some people na groundnut, wallnut dem go dey chop. Team kowope.
