Barbiturate:
I thought I mentioned why no impact was felt.
App companies have office. Pls ask questions.
There's a union. I repeat again, ask questions

No impact can be felt when you have docile drivers in Nigeria. The protest was worldwide, but Nigeria where you have the worst fares, worst condition of service, worst customer care do not see the need to be part of it. I've always questioned the relevance of this thread and the intelligence of it's patrons if it cannot lead a course and further the interest of what it represents. I felt ashamed.

Corner44, ran into one of your old classic pictures. On a boring wet Saturday , thanks for the laughs.

I don't blame u. It's d anyhowness of the Nigerian system coupled with inefficient govt agencies. If not tell me why we have Traffic Police, Road Safety, VIO, Lastma, and the likes.
Reason why u think Police work is limited and restricted.
Let me school u; the Nigerian Police Force is the number 1, highest and central law enforcement agency in the country and can arrest and prosecute for all and any crime including illegal migration, smuggling, financial crimes, drug trafficking and espionage cases even when we have Immigration, Customs, EFCC/ICPC, NDLEA and SSS/DSS respectively, specially created to tackle these crimes.
So any crime, infraction, lawlessness or coming short of lawful requirements u can think of, is under the jurisdiction of the Police.

If ur full lights aren't working, or ur plate number is faded or obscured, if u carry overload or ur tyres are bad, if u jump traffic light or u drive with broken windscreen...any car documentation, road safety, vehicle condition and traffic management infraction is covered in their Traffic Regulations Book. If the Police wants to charge u, they can. It's just that the penalty for most of these things are very very small in their books that's why u will not see a Police man disturbing himself for small small money offences.
You must have a minimum of 8 Documents when driving. And they must be valid and current.
1. Allocation form
2. Police CMR
3. Proof of Ownership
4. Valid Vehicle Licence
5. Valid Road worthiness
6. Valid Insurance
7. All those receipts
8. Valid Drivers Licence

If u have changed ownership, or changed plate number or lost any of those documents and it can't be reprinted, u will need Police report and Sworn Affidavit.

Failure to provide all these, u are going to be doing ajo for law enforcement agencies. Unfortunately this type of ajo, u are never packing.

I been wan say a word is enough for the wise, but I sabi say u no wise, so u will learn by experience when u finally buy car.

Giving validation to your oppressors has always been the bane of the masses of this country. What moral justification does Nigerian Police even have to stand on the road and demand for car documents with the current insecurity we have in the country? Except when there's suspicion of car theft, they shouldn't even stand on the road for that purpose because government delegated that responsibility to other agencies to enable Police concentrate on fighting crime, doing that over stretches the system. You and I know that the only reason police stand on the road to check documents is to look for who to extort money from. The fine people pay to police for not having correct documents does not get to government unlike FRSC and VIO who have been saddled with that responsibility. They have the channels to fine eering motorists, such channels are never available to the Nigerian Police force. So?

But here you are condoning illegality, writing as if it's copy and paste from a primary school text book. No one needs to teach you knowledge sometimes, it's an innate ability that seems missing here.

And that's why these app companies rip you guys off. The fares as it is now are one of the cheapest in the world if not the cheapest, the worst I mean. Go figure. Some of you are doing charity work driving round Lagos without knowing it.

This is why I advocate mass literacy. Na night school Pearl go. Certain things are beyond your comprehension.

To put things in proper perspective, understand what a road worthiness certificate means. It's like saying police has the authority to check if car tyres are worn out, or if car lights are working except when absolutely necessary or human lives are endeangered by it.

They are police, they are not an authority on everything and don't have absolute right or power.

Ajibaiye:
Good morning Nairalanders,

Please which documents do I need to driver Bolt/InDrive in Lagos apart from normal car documents ? I want to avoid those police problems at all cost.

Also, will the police or VIO give me problems if my ROAD WORTHY CERTIFICATE is not ready because this guy keeps saying is not available yet.

I really want to start this job soonest.

Police have no business with Road worthiness Certificate please. Don't let them rip you off, don't give them that chance to even ask. Vehicle and Drivers license, insurance and of course road worthiness (if ready)are the documents you need. I'm hearing Proof of ownership are essential these days. Just get your documents intact though but don't let police men play with your mind about RW, it's not their duty.

Ajibaiye:
I don’t think they would call me for inspection. All has been paid for and that’s why I was charged 96k. All I want to know now is that. Will I have issues with Police if I drive around without the RW ?

Police shouldn't have any business with Road Worthy Certificate. They are not Road Safety Officials or VIO. Ignore any police that demands that. Police can demand for Vehicle license, insurance, driver's license and maybe proof of ownership, not road worthiness. It's none of their business

cyif2003:
Finally thanks was able to do bolt inspection at conoil close to lawanson…. Although I went to Mrs at Alapere but I was told dey where no longer there…


Wanted to ask my car is a 2010 Camry….. does d car qualify for d higher class cars on bolt?

Nothing like higher class car, same fare with 98 Camry. Bolt is only interested in their 25%. Just work smart to cut down unforseen expenses that bedevils the business.

Lol. Story for the gods. So who's phone is this on my hand if not yours? See how phone be like Mushin Traffic light. Lolz

.. lol. Whenever I quote Clavarest, I get banned. I purchased your phone using proxy dude Ewu Mbaise

UrPapa:
Hello guys, I have a newly registered Camry 010 and I plan on giving a friend to use for Uber and stuff
These are the questions baffling me
1. The car registration is for another state and he wants to use it in Lagos, is it possible
2. What’s the minimum insurance policy can he get to start up with
3. Is the car profitable for a e-hailing… at least profitable to feed a newly wedded young man with no kid yet
4. What’s other documents is needed for him to register the car on the e hailing apps and drive in Lagos
5. I read where people talk about inter state gigs being better than intra state;
How true is it and how can one register that

The car is okay, though more fuel consumption than a regular corrola. So long as the car is registered in Nigeria, it can be used for this business in Lagos. Third party insurance is good enough.

As for profitability, he can definitely feed himself and his wife. He only has to be on the road on a daily basis. He will be fine in the interim if he owns the car while on the lookout for something sustainable in the long term.

dav1002:
How does this make sense to you?

If what she's saying is true, is the husband. He's on this thread and I will identify who the coward is.

[quote author=linecrosser post=134990126][/quote]You borrowed someone your phone? You're a married woman. I can only assume the person is your husband. He can't post with his real account, had to use the wife's phone, yet had the balls to call me a coward. Lol.

Sit the fck down biatch!

linecrosser:
you are coward and cheastbeater... If you are a man enough show yourself in the group.... All the testimony of the group don choke you abi....

I will let it pass because you're a woman, Ifeoluwa. Don't come near me next time. Face your life and family.

By the way, which testimony are you talking about? Fuel consumption and car repairs takes nearly 70percent of income. It's a business of survival, side gig and a few that are on suicide mission driving day and night like a few ignorant fools on Telegram. Fares are woefully bad, that I know. I don't know what testimony you want to tell me. Just take a deep sit.

Get exposed, read, learn and most importantly, listen.

Oga rest... Don't disgrace yourself further.

IFSHR:
Much more respect sir

He sounded really sure, cos I am surrounded by Nigerians here and most of them have been helpful, maybe he needs to answer so one can know the area to avoid in the abroad. Atleast make person learn from his experience.

I declined to answer because that question is highly irrelevant. Most of you cannot stand on your feet when you go beyond the shores of Nigeria, you look for countrymen to lean on: Number one sign of being ill prepared for the task ahead as a sojourner.

I live abroad, Mushin Olosha to be precise. But one place I can't live and settle for free is UK as a migrant. I'm way smarter than that.

I don't have to do much in the group

I am in that group SOLELY to keep you out

I am 'Special Duties' admin

You can only foul up the atmosphere on here, in there . . . . we're SAFE 🤗

"Special Duties officer" Lol. This is why I gave you a car to drive so you don't subject yourself to this sort of ridicule, but ego stood in your way. There are bigger bones to crack in life than just looking for me on telegram, you know. I'm still there but invincible. It's only a super computer that can fish me out. So stop wasting your time.

It shows how pathetic of a watchdog you are because I'm still very much in the group. Just laughing at you clowns and your guess work. You keep removing innocent people from the group as if they are me.

Aside being a troll, anything else you're good at?

Conner44:
Oya sorry o! clean your eyes and no cry again 🤗 When you've calmed down send me a dm on telegram so I can beg the super admin to add you back into the group so you can be following regular updates as a bonafide member of this thread

Remember the only reason you were removed was because you were claiming that you weren't who you were even after serious warnings from the group admin about doing that so as you can see I had absolutely nothing to do with it 😔

Remember I keep saying that I have always believed in you I know that you will make me proud one day soon

Hahaha. But you're a clown though bro, I've always told you this. Your foolishness is now an open secret . Lol. You're a group admin in farce Uber telegram group,, but you've never driven on Uber, not even once in your entire existence. Lol. What do you tell your followers? Lol

IFSHR:
The person that asked the question, has his reasons.. and trustworthiness is a character issue not a race issue.

My reply there was an advisory. If he's looking to settle down, Nigerians are plagues he should avoid in a foreign land as a matter of fact. No point asking where the devil's den is located.

Nigeria isn't a race though but eight in every ten you meet can't be trusted. Anyone that doesn't know this just landed from another planet.

That's their pattern. Is it not news of Death and tragedy that Obi has been using to tackle the government?
