Its our work o, soft work
Helping people
with the little we can
Putting smile
And frowning some times when necessary
In their faces.

If the rental charges are reasonable you can give the opportunity a try, in the end it will be an added experience to your portfolio of experience.

Good luck

The best advice as a newbie. Forget that car, you will surely make money but I tell you, it will all be for the car owner.

You will not even know how the money in your dashboard didn't end up in your pocket.

Fear catch me as well..

The two basic thing is just ensure its dent/scratch free and your Ac dey work,
Not forgetting the minimum year model (2003 for bolt and 2000 for Uber)

Ghost1994:
Each time I read how government officials extort Uberbolt drivers, my heart bleeds.

There’re many reasons why these things why we fall victims such as greed, misinformation and lack of concentration

Am gonna try and be helpful on the part of misinformation

Am gonna list some lastma/police/task force/local government touts hotspots

On the island

No parking and stopping on the entire stretch of marina and broad street, the only authorized drop off and pick up point for Uberbolt is oando filling station marina

Also no stopping at CMS bus stop both in front of that church and under the foot bridge.

No stopping or parking on the entire stretch of st Gregory’s road or any of the inner street off the street except you’re dropping Off a resident of that particular street,also no stopping or parking on the entire stretch of awolowo road ikoyi

No parking along that ikoyi passport office road, you can drop off and wait a bit but don’t park and switch off your engine,they have eyes all around

Also if you’re to park on those streets off Alfred rewane be very watchful and don’t sleep off because they patrol from time to time

Eko hotel round about is another place to be very careful about, if you’re sharp you can quickly drop off there and move sharply

Then another problem with Victoria island is that they’re many one way roads which the signs are hidden or not visible, I can’t vividly describe the streets here with texts but once you’re in VI and you’re trying to enter a street look out for signs or better still park and ask to be sure.

The newly built traffic lights at 1st and 2nd roundabout in lekki is a bit confusing, if you’re trying to make a u-turn, look out for the correct sign and turn there, else those lastma and police officers are milking people dry on a daily basis, don’t fall victim pls.

Ajah under bridge is also a hot spot

From Abraham adesanya down to epe is a bit relaxed

Now we come to mainland

First on the list is Ikeja, during the day there’s no safe spot on Ikeja except the inner inner streets of GRA and Allen area, Ikeja is very notorious for traffic offenses so it’s better you avoid them but I’ll still share some hotspots

Kodesoh street inwards GRA, if you’re not turning right towards airport road, don’t stay on the extreme right, it will be termed obstruction and watch out for the traffic light there,they change very fast

Under bridge too,if you’re not sure where you’re going just stay in the middle lane,another thing to note if you must press your phone or receive calls around Ikeja be very watchful too and vigilant

Ade niyi Jones to connect oba akran traffic light, pls don’t try and beat it because those task force policemen on bikes are always there and will give you a hot chase

Airport road,for no reason whatsoever must you stop on the entire stretch of airport road from international down to local, don’t ever ever stop or park, if you wanna pick someone just drive into the car park and wait, don’t try to be smart about it

If you’re to pick a rider at MM1 tell him or get to come in to the car park

If you’re to pick at MM2 you can pick from the arrival pick up point or car park but make sure you don’t pick or drop off a rider when you’re on the zebra crossing, that offense alone Na 50k and most importantly don’t waste time while picking up, if you don’t see the rider yet keep moving and circle round back into the airport until you see him or her

If you’re to pick at international airport tell the rider to come inside the car park not outside oh, it must be inside after the barrier else they will clamp and tow your car away

Most importantly when you’re around Ikeja you should be very smart and watchful and don’t park anyhow

Yaba is another hotspot that you don’t park anyhow on the streets except you go into the inner and isolated streets and also watch out for one way roads, another area notorious for one way roads is shomolu and bariga, I don’t really know much about those areas because I don’t go there

Surulere The traffic light in front of stadium to turn into Alhaji masha road be very careful lastma guys are always on the prowl,there’s also a turning if you miss it don’t try and turn at the next one,if you’re caught no stories oh

Also be careful around aguda area,there’re some no parking zones around there, even if you wanna park just be watchful and smart about it, the local government tours there no get joy at all

So for now these are the ones I can easily remember, the rest places I hardly go to and if I go I don’t waste time and am very vigilant before I leave there

Places like egbeda,agege,iyana ipaja, ayobo,ikotun,ikorodu,abule egbaland,ogba,somolu,bariga,igando I hardly go to these places

Places where you rarely have issues are festac,ago palace way,mile 2,ajegunle,okoko,satellite town,iba

Some other hot zones

Alakija under bridge
Apple junction(not always)
Iganmu bridge

That will be all for now

Stay safe and God bless us all

Your advice will be appreciated �

northbird:



Henceforth, keep your eyes open.... Watch out for erected poles, anything standing on the road ....


It still beats me how some drivers enter the one way @ ICM, and the No U turn @ Governor's road. I mean, this is big enough now.

Some are faded/ inconspicuous .. E.g the one at barlikisiyu Iyede road.. Harvey road that connects to Unilag ( the one way signage looks like a piece of Maggi cube on a Plate of rice)

Look further ahead when driving.... On ehailng, you must develop ur sixth sense... Esp. when you are on the mainland.

Sammyclarinet:




Don't be too confident about Google map oooooo...it would take you thru one way in Shomolu area oooo...and it does that with confidence;just don't know why.So,the best option still remains:paying careful attention to the direction of the vehicles at the junction as well as analysing the way vehicles are parked.

As for burning fuel around:study the environment where you park.As you drive each day,study locations where riders come out in the morning,such as estates and residential areas and study where rides are needed to pick up students from schools in the afternoon...then move away from traffic jammed areas in the evenings so you can cover more spaces and maximize everything.....

You just have to be more careful at some places like Yaba. Watch the way vehicles are parked before you enter any street and the direction vehicles are moving. Ask your rider if you're not too sure. Also, in my experience(I may be wrong, its only my 4th month on ehailing) Google map will not take you through a one way route.


As for hypemiling, its a driving technique aimed at reducing fuel economy to the barest minimum. You can read up on Google.

And for some reasons I don't know, most ladies are always in a hurry. Someone is always somewhere waiting for them, disturbing them with calls asking where they are.

So when you're with those kind of riders forget about hypermilling else you won't last one week on bolt.

kanuisagoat:


This idea of waiting at a place till you get another ride for some reasons has never worked for me. Infact, I only did that during my first two weeks on ehailing and I quickly realised I made more money moving around smartly than just staying in one place. Yes, I used just a little more fuel but I made more money.

Once I drop off a rider, I wait 5-10 minutes then i'll move towards the nearest place where I know I'm most likely going to get another ride.

When I see people say they've been waiting at one place for 3 hours no request I want to smh but then I quickly remember that every one has what works for them. Driving around works quite well for me.

You may want to read about hypermiling. Thats the technique I use when driving without a rider.

PS:
I am not recommending driving around to anyone because you may end up wasting fuel if you're not smart and you don't know the exact places to target.
