To avoid car snatching. Corolla is hot cake for car snatchers
Barbiturate:


Even drivers should be able to see riders picture. Our lives are also important.



Meanwhile, this is to majority of the bolt drivers in Lagos, using Corolla; Why do you guys drive rough? You change lanes any how roughky

So sorry about the incident. But seriously, we don't don't take some measures seriously. That's the reason every rider should see the driver's picture when ordering and compare it to the person coming to pick them. I once ordered a ride on bolt and the driver came with a different car, I refuse to even identify I'm the rider when he called he was around, he waited and left. Let's not take some security measures for granted no matter what. The days are evil.
omoba2012:
Came online few minutes ago and I'm seeing several posts on the lady that was mu.rdered by cultis.ts for chanting in their slangs and songs.

She was asked to identify where she belongs and she said that she was just following a tiktok trend(maybe).

This is worrisome and scary.

I was still trying to wrap my head around what I saw and my boss shared something with me.

Please stay safe and be very mindful of things you join in.

Be extremely careful these days.

My boss just told me that he was robbed yesterday.

After working for a top celebrity, he was heading home, ordered a bolt ride only to find out that the driver was an armed rob.ber!

He was asked to play cool and my boss compiled.

He was asked to provide his ATM, he did.

My boss told them that there was no money in that account, they didn't believe him till they checked in their POS machine.

Yes, they were carrying POS machine around.

Other guys with guns joined them when they were indecisive to go to the supermarket.

My boss had 100k on him.

That was the money the top celebrity gave him in appreciation for a job well done(not the payment for work done).

They took his phone too.

My boss was so thankful that he didn't go out with his main phone and his laptop.

It would have destroyed a whole lot.

My boss tried to trace those robbers and it turned out that they abducted the main driver.

Whenever the driver recieves an order, they go pick the person and rob him or her

They abducted the driver, held him captive somewhere until they are done with whatever operation they had planned out.

They will abandon the car and release him.

Phew!!

I'm so shocked right now!!

They must have robbed the driver too.

My boss is still traumatized.

I am too.

Y'all should stay safe out there and be extra vigilant.

Omoo!!

This news wey ah receive now eh�

God epp us!

Post edit: This happened in Lagos Island. I took permission from my boss to share this.

My mechanic told me is 12k they sell it. I will haggle over the price when I get to ladipo
Crvrider:


Mine was tokunbo for both master cylinder and servo. Your car differs from mine hence the price difference however I still think the price is on the high. Try and visit the market yourself.
Business / Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by YoungDreamer: 5:47pm On Sep 28, 2021
I tried his number today and it went though. He said the tokumbo cost 12k. Was your own brand new or tokumbo?
Crvrider:


If you're buying just the master then it should be cheaper. In my own case I bought it complete. On the other hand, since its a different car the price might differ.
Business / Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by YoungDreamer: 5:43pm On Sep 27, 2021
The mechanic that detected it when my brake failed said it cost 12k and 2k for workmanship. He said I can buy it and he will fix it. I should just them master brake for camry 2007.
Crvrider:


I just tried his number and its switched off. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the receipt of the guy I bought it from. You might just have to visit the market in person.

Thanks, I really appreciate

Google maps are reliable to an extent concerning one-ways. The problem is the inconsistent government that changes a lane to one way overnight. It would take Google some time to detect and make changes.

Whenever you get to a place that you suspect is a one way, please ask you rider, or ask people around. Also look out for how the cars are parked. If all are facing one direction, it's definitely a one way.

Also if you make a mistake on Lagos roads, don't correct your mistake immediately. Pay the penalty by going further to correct it

I see some drivers missing their ways and decide to reverse. In that process, LASTMA blocks you. Instead, go further and make your U turn.

Lastly, I hate to beg my fellow man. I prefer to beg my God. So spend time begging God before you start your day. Na only God fit save us from these people.

The master brake came inbuilt with the car, so the mechanic said its bad and needs to be replaced.
Felicity001:


Sorry bros na so e dey always be don't get discourage you'll always get better.

This is why I always say, do a proper work on your car b4 putting it on the road.

There are some things I don't like with in a car:
1) breaking system
2) my tires
3) battery
4) my spare tire, Jack and wheel spinal
And may be I should just had fire extinguisher to the list.

If motor like make e dey do on and off, over heating I go rugged am reach house safely but if anything goes wrong with especially the No 1&2 on the list while on high speed enh2... My brother na only God go know watin go happen.

So please make sure you take that car back to your mechanic let him check why the master break wasnt working in the first place.

LESSON LEARNT FROM MY LASTMA EXPERIENCE
1. Beware of Lastma anywhere you see them on the road.
2. When I got their office, I found out that most of their victims are private car owners who are not aware of those one way route because there is no visible sign to show it only a paved diversion.
3. Most of their so called traffic offences could easily be corrected but rather, they chose to use it against the person.
4. They hardly go after danfo who are constant traffic law breakers.
5. I still doubt reliability and reliability of Google map in knowing one way, so is better to accept trips to areas well known to you.

Law enforcement is dangerous in Nigeria because it lacks correction on a minor mistakes rather encourages settlement.

Those 90% and 80% accuracy are poor
Juwonmania:
90% on island
80% on mainland
But for ikorodu, only the ants go tell

How accurate is google map in knowing all one way roads in lagos.
Business / Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by YoungDreamer: 8:14pm On Sep 21, 2021
Today is a very bad day for me as the first day of starting bolt. I got a ride to ikeja and along Ikorodu Road, my vehicle failed brake. I hit two different cars at the back as a result of that, I had to drive on the service lane and avoided speeding. This is a vehicle
I have been driving without any issue. The rider I carried was quite understanding. I finally arrive at the destination and called a mechanic around there to check if it was the brake pad, he checked and said the brake pads are still new that the problem was the master brake that was bad, he later helped me to adjust it so I could go back on getting to where I was supposed to pickup another rider, I entered Lastma problem. A very sad day for me.
