Kumuyiii: The reason lagos pays the best in ehailing, what do you think is the reason? I'll leave u to think a bit b4 you answer. I abhor traffic like a plague and it's well documented in some of my posts. I don't need traffic to make money. That's burning your candle at both ends |

Kumuyiii: I'm sure you've heard the statement 'necessary evil'.... Eno sweet, but it is needed for the sustained progress.. Today as I'm talking to you 3 days now, I'll rather my car rest than put miles on it for change. January last year with coastal road closed, i know how much i made, as road free how e take pay me?
I'm selfish... Yes I'm selfish and i have self respect, I'll rather have a bit of traffic and app bill them well, than shamelessly be asking passenger to add money for me like one beggar.. One dodoyo dey tell me, he'll rather make less and drive on free road, mowe to abuja na... Road free like heaven highway... na stone ur car dey run on na, na sand you dey use service motor... Go read comment section how dem dey rate una... If the money is so good, why una dey extort passengers? Morality police, mr cool cash isonu.... Provided it's the same amount of demand, free roads pay you better. |

jahbenedict: Very true. You need upwards of 40% pa to get that figure. Which is very rare in the money market. However, I have seen some commercial papers that pay 40% pa. This one in the screenshot was for 33% pa for 180 days (6months), it matures next month. Very savvy investors usually negotiate and bargin for higher rates and better terms especially if they are very liquid, and have good credit rating. Abeg which platform is this. However, I understand Pearl's point though. These things are low risk low interest gigs and will only yield significant returns if your investment is long term and compounding. Besides that, na low risk low reward. Or your principal is really huge, like 1 billion. |

Pearl1910: Very True!!! Also even if u are using other State Plate number, but using ur car for ehailing in Lagos, u have to use Lagos Road Worthiness and Lagos Hackney Permit cos it's assumed u are resident in Lagos, except you can prove otherwise. To avoid all these VIO troubles, I ditched registering my cars with other states plate numbers. Cos there's no point u still have to come to them. To make matters worse they are now everywhere like every LCDA, so u can't really avoid them if u want to work seriously. Gbam!!! Let him who has ears hear. |

What is left is "Vehicle Inspection Report or Vehicle Licence" the picture below is it what I need or do I need to go for inspection? Upload this AND GO for inspection...

Gentlelife50: That's why I like Uber, if it's indrivr you are on your own. The funny thing was, before I ended the trip I had said I'm my mind that I won't collect money from her cos to be fair it was a very short waka and it barely cost me anything but as she quick para ontop the matter I was like naaa she doesn't deserve it. |

Djdamian: Sorry about what you went through. Things like this happen sometimes, and we learn from them.
Please try to install a dashcam in your car. It helps prevent confrontations with troublesome customers, especially when they notice it in the car. Had a similar episode on Sunday. Picked up the lady and started the trip as per usual. She then gets a call and she says she's no longer going that I should take her back to the pickup location which I did without hesitation. Total distance was less than 500 metres. I ended the trip and it was 3100. She said she couldn't pay that amount o blah blah blah, I said I don't make the dates and I tried to explain how minimum fare works, she insisted that she can only pay some. I Sha told her it doesn't work that way, she can either pay the fare as displayed then make a complaint to uber or not pay anything at all. She even called her friend and told her, she too was like noooooooo that's not possible. She still maintained her stance and I said she could go then. Throughout the exchange no raised voices no argument, calm but very firm and still keeping things civil. |

I hope we learn a lesson from this driver-rider altercation. This isn't the first time issues like this would pop up here and most support the driver, even when he is in the wrong (NOT SAYING THIS ONE IS IN THE WRONG O)
How a driver manages situations is very very critical. Beyond your driving skill, your temperament, diplomacy and conflict management/resolution is the next most essential skill.
Knowing you have a lot more to lose should be uppermost on your mind after safety. And I'm not only talking about issues with riders, other road users too. I remember one uber Suzuki guy trying to force himself into my front one day, I held my ground and after trying repeatedly the guy just brushed my car pulling off my front bumper and carried on like say nothing happen. Na me gats begin sort myself. Time and energy wasted, thankfully no monetary cost. Similar scenarios have happened to me like 5 times, some costing money in repairs. These are situations I could have avoided but I was standing on my right, and guess what, I was even more upset than I would have been if I'd just let the mad people go.
Like someone said, you can't control other people's actions, only your's. In the long run a lot of these things that get our veins strung out don't really matter not on the other hand, look at the outcome here. A potential 5k loss has become a loss of a whole line of earnings while the girl is out there maybe looking for the next victim.
Let's be wise in our dealings, simple.
Also, guys, put a dashcam in your car and make sure it is visible to everyone, rider and police alike. E dey reduce problem. |

Kumuyiii: November December, it's possible... But you'll be a d*ead man walking.... Same here for Sunday, but na 11pm i reach house... 187k.....100k per day is possible but not feasible (sustainable)..... Ur enemies go kpai on time Why did you use the word "feasible" where you should have use "sustainable" and them go ahead to write "sustainable" in brackets? What you want to say is it's not sustainable NOT that it's not feasible. When you say it's possible you're already saying it's feasible as both words are synonyms. |

XGhost: Lol... I did.
I de come with the rest of the story So I asked him if he had people with him already? He said yes. They are all going to VI... he said yes. Ok, meet me at so so so (the lay by at berger where cars can stop without harassment) because no be me go stop by the the roadside. The guy Sha came, Full suit and tie. I ask am say how e wan do am. He said I'll drop them first then head to his own destination. We come move o, this dude hadn't discussed how much with his passengers o. E say VI 2k, Del no gree, 1.5 Dem say MBA, me I just de fire de go fo express. Las Las they forced him to do 1k. He was going to fidelity place on kofo but 1 passenger was going to Akin Adesola, the other 2 adéọlá Odeku. In my head I was just doing the math, ordinarily we'd have passed bonny camp, instead we had to pass Osborne to adéọlá Odeku then kofo. Osborne now had traffic again. No be the whole 3k done almost finish so? It was so amusing |

Should I work only on the island and can I only do this with inDrive? Because that is the only app I have for now. Which other app has easy registration? Cherry pick your trips, It takes a lot of patience and discipline but it'll help you big time |
