Lmaoooo you overhype your importance sir.

I’m sure most of these drivers have an “international exposure”.. you’re talking baselessly.


I do not support rude drivers, kudos to those who after getting insulted switch of the app to go home, or take a rest. They are the real customer service provider.

While a driver must learn that attitude matters, and like my trainer in UBER said back then,: the person you meet now, you may never meet them again in such a large city, so, why waste your energy”?.

Personally I prepare for the worse and pray for the best when going out for the day, so I’m never disappointed with riders attitude.... cos I was expecting it anyway.

But you always dropping gibberish and unrealistic quote just makes me laugh. I imagine you look like those preachers with red tie, green pants and black shoe.

Oga educated, oga traveler, oga they are not in my level.... wehdone sir!!!

Hey guys let me share a little experience with you just for the benefit of those doing partnership or HP.

After I discovered my personal vehicle wasn’t made for the ehailing operations in understanding with my wife I decided to go for a rental. I went on NL and then made the request. Same day I got a call from someone.

Gring gring gring!!! Hello good evening, it’s a lady’s voice
“Yes, I got your post on NL so I like to know where you stay/live”
I told her
“Oh, it’s too far not my jurisdiction I want somebody that leave around my place.
Ok, no problem. She immediately hung the phone.
I thought of it for few minutes, what gas distance got to do with the hustle? I quickly picked up my phone then sent her a text making her know distance is a thing of the mind,bla bla bla. The next day she called asking if I’m free to come down immediately.

The next day I went there, saw the car and we had a great talked and compromise. Car was bought direct belgium just 6-7month away within this time 4 drivers have used the car and the last guy that used the car bashed the front leaving one of the fenders and the headlamps in a very bad shape and left the car just after a week. Off course I asked why so many drivers within just the short period. the young lady said the first just came, dropped the car one morning and left, the 2nd left her with car at the mechanic workshop, the last bashed the car... little did I know car was having consistent issue due to high weekly target couple with car was an accidented car.

Next day I came to picked up the car, as someone that have been using cars for some times na let me carry out my normal rituals. I discovered something. Oil droplet from one region around the engine. She quickly called her mechanic. We took the car there. Oil sensor was faulty. Car was left at the mechanic workshop for another whole day for it to be fixed.
Next day again I went to picked car up.

All these time more than four persons in my neighborhood where calling in asking for my interest on the weekly rental, some HP without any upfront payment, but I declined telling them I’ve gotten one I never knew I was in a wrong path.

Next day again I went to pick car up from my young madam house. Zoom! I turned in my apps. Right there in her presence request entered. “Babe, na go I dey o, work don start, expect your first payment as agreed next week”. I could see the joy and relief in her face with plenty of pleasant smiles on her face.

Just on my way to the airport I noticed something, the speedometer was dangling, it’s reads to a certain speed then stops. Two days later the thing stopped reading totally, I called my young fine, sexy and single madam’s attention to it. 3-4 days later I noticed another thing serious. The gear started slowing down when on high speed. Haaa! My personal car Honda had similar issue one time before so I thought I could apply the same technics of turning it off and starting after some time, yet hear won’t pick unlike my that will pick. “Madam, this is the issue I just noticed oh did any of the former drivers told you anything about this before?” “Yes, one complained bla bla... look for a time and bring the car down let’s the mechanic check it”.

Within these few days I’ve not been able to make use of the car efficiently apart from the first 3days which was without speedometer and headlamp because driving past 7pm was a problem as the light wasn’t too bright. You see enh, experience matters oh. I remembered a Chinese guy complained about my km not reading �. These white guys they pay attention to things you wouldn’t even think or could imagine. But despite all of that I made sure I got her money available. The following week after my first remittance I took the car to her as instructed because she said after first payment the fender and the headlamp(HL) will be worked on. Scanning was done and the speedometer sensor was changed. And at the end of the day the fender and HL wasn’t attended to as it was getting dark.
I suggested to her since that morning “babe, all of these things I can take care of them at my convenience without coming down and having work down times, I’ll send the bill to you. My madam said no. Ok o, no p. Ok, I’m going home it’s getting dark I’d to pickup my son from school. Call me when the car is fixed. Madam changed face bla bla bla...

In my way home that night, the gear problem still persist and even worse than it was before the sensor was replaced. Next morning madam who agreed to send money to do the repairs sent a message on WhatsApp saying an urgency came up and she needed to travel and will be back same time next week. This was Wednesday. In my mind I was like, really?! That means no work this week be that. Each day I tried to use the car to see if I could manage it to work, for where? Once car is hot like this gear won’t select again but the acceleration can go as high as 6-7 sometimes before gear picks. Men... as a fellow car owner I was not ok within I just vex park car at home.

I call my young madam, she wouldn’t pick up instead she will send a DM that I should find a way to fix things. I took car to my mechanics a gear specialist, spent about 7k both on fuel to test drive for almost 3hours for the guy to know the exalt way it does, he did his work. After that the engine check sign went off and car seems to be ok. Oya na make I go work, problem still persist, gear wasn’t still ok, my mechanic said he still need to drive the car to see how far... to cut the long story short. Thursday last week or there about I called my young madam she still wouldn’t pickup I simply sent her a text, “babe I’m returning your car” she said I should drop it with somebody, I said no I can’t do that I collected car from you and nobody was there when I was picking the car from you so why should I hand it over to somebody I do not know. I’ll wait till you return then bring the car to you. Since I’ve ran out of cash to fix the problem car will be parked at my place till you’re ready.

The next day evening madam called me that she was around, I said fine, I’ll be coming the following morning, the next morning my wife said we need to take my son to the hospital has the little boy was running temperature. Will I say because I want to return car I won’t attend to my family? No way!

I quickly sent her a text telling her something or urgency came up even letting her know I’d to visit a hospital. I noticed she didn’t read my message even after several hours. My plan was after returning I’ll take the car to her. I’ve successfully dropped my son and the mother at the hospital let me quickly check something close by while doctors was doing his thing, my young madam called,
“Where are you, I’m in your area, I just read you message I hope all is well”.
Me, yes all is well but I’m heading back to the hospital now, this is exactly where I am right now stocked in traffic I should be back before 2pm if you would still be around.
She, “yes I’ll be waiting then”.

After like 30+ still in the traffic to the hospital I saw my young madam highlighted from a bike. I just jejely opened the door.
Me, good afternoon with little smile on my face.
She, “can we go to Agor now?”
Me, why?! I can’t. Was still talking when she interrupted.
Ok pull over. I didn’t even argue, as the traffic moved she repeated. Pull over pull over.
I was like why don’t we go to my house let’s talk or are we having any issues? Or who will drive you home from here cause I know she can’t even drive.
She kept saying, pull over. Don’t worry about that.
I didn’t even argued I just simply pulled over. She just off the engine herself and then took the keys.

Me I just take my little things, came out of the vehicle and immediately she locked the car. Na so me I carry my karya stopped bike move. When home pickup my car then to the hospital and picked up my family.

There are things I learnt from this little experience within this few weeks and on both ends.

First, as a renter don’t rush into accepting a car due to financial pressures you maybe having, better opportunities always abide so long your set you mind at it.

Before you tell other persons off when looking for a rental, test drive one or two cars if you can test more else you’ll fall back to square 1 worst than before.

And to all of those car owners who believe setting a high target is best, the truth is, yes. The aim of every business is to make profit but don’t do it to the detriment of your business. Setting a high and unrealistic target will definitely affect you and your business in the long run because employees will always come and go no matter the training you give to them or amount spent on them the moment they don’t feel comfortable anymore they’ll leave if you like have the best equipments, structure or facilities on ground. In the end it you and your business that will suffer the most.

If they know they need to get married before they become illegal, that means they know what's up unless they dont want to open up to you

IL, CA, TX etc. People full there driving with no license/Nigera DL and they are fine.

Infact I know someone that had accident with other 4 cars, no license and police arrested her. She got bailed for $200, got a ticket of $1500 and even went to court, Judge dismissed the 1500$ ticket, told her to pay $500 and Yes, Insurance paid for the repairs of those people car except hers.

If you dont have a US driver license, u will do insurance and but insurance will deny you when u have accident.

No Police will ask for your immigration status except maybe in AZ.

No system is perfect and like I said, I DONT SUPPORT USING FAKE DOCS TO BYPASS PROCESS.

End of discussion, Thanks for your time.



This is not you'll accurate asking with everything else you have been told but I can't be bothered to correct it. It's not often that I agree with Dru but almost everything he had been saying is 100% accurate.

I guess your friend in the US that married on a student Visa was you.

I believe "People" say US is a Sane country and since you live here, I expected you to behave like a Sane man and not resort to insult during arguments.

I still stand on my word and hear this, people without papers sef finance cars too.

I live in Chicago, Illinois. Call your people in Chicago, they will tell you whatsapp.

If generated SSN could work for doordash, lyft how much more of insurance company..

This is a public forum, so I wont say much.

We might live in the same US BUT we got different orientation.

I'm ignoring you moving forward.

Goodnight

I know for a fact that is untrue. Those numbers DO get run and flagged. They just haven't gotten to them yet. It can take up to 3 years. That's is jail straight. Someone is BS-ing you.

This has no bearing on anything. The fact that you supposedly give out cars on rentals and someone else is here looking for a car on rentals doesn’t make you better than him, like your post implies. You talk about attitude, practice what you preach

It’s good you make me know who you truly are and thanks once again for doing that?

I try as much to stay away from SM verbal confrontations and one philosophy I believe in life is people are a function of most of their posts and all of their views about a subject.

I came out boldly to say what I need and then you and other persons reached out to me which I’m still weighing my options from all offers. Yes, from our conversation if you’re smart you would have noticed I’m a man of principles, honest and sincere with some level of exposure even though I’m not as privilege as you may rank yourself but that doesn’t mean you’re doing me any favor for wanting to hire your car to me. As a matter of fact you should be more grateful and show some appreciation to we who accept to drive for you and make money for you because no matter how it look or sound we are your employees and without us? Your business is as good as dead. Same thing applies to all ehailing firms.

I like the fact you stated it’s you because I was actually mistaken you for somebody else “trojah” but now that I know I can say to you you just lost a good person because from all your comment I’ve read so far, I really don’t think I would want to partner with such a person who sees himself as God above all mankind.

If you think 25k weekly for rental plus monthly servicing and repairs less than 2k is not ok then even 30k or 40k will still never be ok. I know people who do 20k with even a more expensive car and I know bounce of people who are doing 25k with no stories. But the once doing 30k tell us what are the stories like? How long do they go before dumping the car and in what conditions was the car returned to you?
Oga, boss, sir you know all these things so let’s not say much...

You really don’t need to rubbish people’s reputation to make a point just be the gentle man you claim to be all of us are hustlers or the fact you arrive first no mean say the next guy no go arrive.

Good luck bros, one love! No hard feelings!
May God bless our hustle

There are things I learnt from this little experience within this few weeks and on both ends.

First, as a renter don’t rush into accepting a car due to financial pressures you maybe having, better opportunities always abide so long your set you mind at it.

Before you tell other persons off when looking for a rental, test drive one or two cars if you can test more else you’ll fall back to square 1 worst than before.

And to all of those car owners who believe setting a high target is best, the truth is, yes. The aim of every business is to make profit but don’t do it to the detriment of your business. Setting a high and unrealistic target will definitely affect you and your business in the long run because employees will always come and go no matter the training you give to them or amount spent on them the moment they don’t feel comfortable anymore they’ll leave if you like have the best equipments, structure or facilities on ground. In the end it you and your business that will suffer the most.


Sorry to read all dis boss, but I want to believe matters are tabled here for both view and review... In as much as I won't like to judge the lady in question, we have different way of reaction and assimilation, she might not have gotten half of her investment, like u said the going was good and she is willin to do her best, probably dia is a link missing or she is going through what she can't take for the day, try and find out. My only concern on ur part here, if I'm not mistaking, you should have use ur car for family purpose and let her own b strictly for business, u promised to drop d car, d moment u crack d engine, it should b straight to her house.

You didn't tell us the amount that seem too high or what you think is feasible for better partnership.

Nice judgment, fantastic criticism and good understanding of the whole matter.

Just like you pointed out. Yes, it’s absolutely true she haven’t even seen half of her capital let alone profit, reason I feel so sorry and sad for her because the dealer that sold the car to her took advantage of her naivety and ignorance selling an accidented car to her. In addition to that the engine shorts oil, I checked for any leakage I couldn’t find.

Talking about using the car for family purpose, No! I won’t agree to that neither will I take any defense as well, as the engine was far below the gauge I’d to carry out emergency servicing that very morning because I couldn’t have driven the car all the way from abule egba to agor. After carrying out servicing off course I’ve to crack the engine and like I said my intention was to deliver the car to her when I return from family “waka”.

Gaskia oga....i wanted to ask the same thing walai...
How come he didn't use his car to run his personal affairs..?..since his car was movable. Inasmuch as he claim her car was faulty, he should av jus left it at home.
No doubt she thought he was lying to her pertaining the condition of d car, hereby using her car to work, and dat was what prompted her action.

Am giving you the benefit of doubt. And I highly doubt if any illegals are doing uber . I have friend of mine doing uber.. He said it is not possible for illegals to do uber.. For the fact that uber requires SSN, driver license, proof of insurance.. If your car has no insurance there is no way uber except you.. That I knw there is no way around that 100% .... Those three that you said are doing uber illegally, are putting themselves at high risk of deportation my brother and also jail time too.. It means they are avoiding paying tax at the end of the year.. So who are they filing their tax too? Uber sets up a tax form for your tax .. But you are responsible for reporting those tax to the government....

Again I highly doubt those three people are telling you the truth...
You are absolutely correct Dru. There are times you allow some people to wallow in their ignorance. You can't continue flogging a dead horse. All these informations are out there for everyone to see, regardless of where anyone lives. Why would an illegal chose to directly put himself in the line of fire by enlisting with Uber that will bring him face to face with law enforcement agencies that he's hiding from? Lol. Not even plausible to begin with. Only a die hard criminal would try that, maybe, those are the exceptions they are basing their arguments on.

Ndo for all that happened. But I have some exceptions from your experience...Areas where you did wrong, or acted wrong.

PS: It's just my opinion bro. And no vex for however I put am

1) You went for a car. After negotiations, you discovered a fault. And the next time you went, you resumed work. Who does that?
You were supposed to test the car and ensure it was okay. Drive it with your partner inside. No need for assumptions. You made a mistake there

2)Secondly, always let your partner take their responsibilities. If she said you both were going to be using her mechanic, then stick to it. Don't suggest that you can handle it. Unless you both had that in the agreement

3) Trust is built and earned. When the car had a fault and she told you she wasn't around, the next thing you ought to do was PARK THE CAR IN HER HOUSE. That way, she knows you're truly serious and you did not work. But if you say the car has fault, and the car is in your compound, then.....

4) You told her you're returning her car, and then she asked you to give it to someone. What else are you waiting for? sad You didn't have to tell her all that. You know her house. Simply call her when you get to the person and let her speak with him/her, and the hand over the car and leave.

5) You shouldn't even have brought this experience to nairaland. She met you here. If ehailing didn't work for you both, doesn't mean something else won't. You have actually painted her as bad, which may not be the case

No vex for my comment oh. We learn everyday,
and it's just my opinion.

Is UBER Accepting Salvaged Or Accidented Vehicles In Nigeria?

Do you have anything to say regarding that?

If YES, let's have them here => https://www.nairaland.com/5587738/uber-accepting-salvaged-accidented-vehicles

Riders don’t care about the drivers, it’s the company (uber,bolt) they care about. Who the heck is a driver? You’re just a tool uber/bolt gave them for their trip. You can’t stop them from using the app.

Riders nko? Who are they? They are your karma grin for 2hours tops to secure the bag.

Drivers can’t ban riders from using the app. So they have no reason to bow to you only to uber/bolt that gave them the privilege to enjoy comfort (or pain grin) Uber/Bolt has principal authority what happens to riders and drivers.

We have to manage each other (drivers and riders) but if e get as e be you, you con do anyhow, you go see anyhow o.

Man wey sabi, thank you I can see you have knowledge and experience in things like this. Next time I’ll do better since you’ve highlighted all my fault.
But don’t mis take it, or did I in anyway paint her bad? No such intention either by bringing it here. At least I’ve learnt something from your deductions and judgment and I believe some other persons too must have learnt as well. My reason for bring it up here.

In any case, sorry for disturbing and no offense taken from your judgment rather I appreciate your experience knowledge shared or thought.

Hey guys let me share a little experience with you just for the benefit of those doing partnership or HP.

After I discovered my personal vehicle wasn’t made for the ehailing operations in understanding with my wife I decided to go for a rental. I went on NL and then made the request. Same day I got a call from someone.

Gring gring gring!!! Hello good evening, it’s a lady’s voice
“Yes, I got your post on NL so I like to know where you stay/live”
I told her
“Oh, it’s too far not my jurisdiction I want somebody that leave around my place.
Ok, no problem. She immediately hung the phone.
I thought of it for few minutes, what gas distance got to do with the hustle? I quickly picked up my phone then sent her a text making her know distance is a thing of the mind,bla bla bla. The next day she called asking if I’m free to come down immediately.

The next day I went there, saw the car and we had a great talked and compromise. Car was bought direct belgium just 6-7month away within this time 4 drivers have used the car and the last guy that used the car bashed the front leaving one of the fenders and the headlamps in a very bad shape and left the car just after a week. Off course I asked why so many drivers within just the short period. the young lady said the first just came, dropped the car one morning and left, the 2nd left her with car at the mechanic workshop, the last bashed the car... little did I know car was having consistent issue due to high weekly target couple with car was an accidented car.

Next day I came to picked up the car, as someone that have been using cars for some times na let me carry out my normal rituals. I discovered something. Oil droplet from one region around the engine. She quickly called her mechanic. We took the car there. Oil sensor was faulty. Car was left at the mechanic workshop for another whole day for it to be fixed.
Next day again I went to picked car up.

All these time more than four persons in my neighborhood where calling in asking for my interest on the weekly rental, some HP without any upfront payment, but I declined telling them I’ve gotten one I never knew I was in a wrong path.

Next day again I went to pick car up from my young madam house. Zoom! I turned in my apps. Right there in her presence request entered. “Babe, na go I dey o, work don start, expect your first payment as agreed next week”. I could see the joy and relief in her face with plenty of pleasant smiles on her face.

Just on my way to the airport I noticed something, the speedometer was dangling, it’s reads to a certain speed then stops. Two days later the thing stopped reading totally, I called my young fine, sexy and single madam’s attention to it. 3-4 days later I noticed another thing serious. The gear started slowing down when on high speed. Haaa! My personal car Honda had similar issue one time before so I thought I could apply the same technics of turning it off and starting after some time, yet hear won’t pick unlike my that will pick. “Madam, this is the issue I just noticed oh did any of the former drivers told you anything about this before?” “Yes, one complained bla bla... look for a time and bring the car down let’s the mechanic check it”.

Within these few days I’ve not been able to make use of the car efficiently apart from the first 3days which was without speedometer and headlamp because driving past 7pm was a problem as the light wasn’t too bright. You see enh, experience matters oh. I remembered a Chinese guy complained about my km not reading �. These white guys they pay attention to things you wouldn’t even think or could imagine. But despite all of that I made sure I got her money available. The following week after my first remittance I took the car to her as instructed because she said after first payment the fender and the headlamp(HL) will be worked on. Scanning was done and the speedometer sensor was changed. And at the end of the day the fender and HL wasn’t attended to as it was getting dark.
I suggested to her since that morning “babe, all of these things I can take care of them at my convenience without coming down and having work down times, I’ll send the bill to you. My madam said no. Ok o, no p. Ok, I’m going home it’s getting dark I’d to pickup my son from school. Call me when the car is fixed. Madam changed face bla bla bla...

In my way home that night, the gear problem still persist and even worse than it was before the sensor was replaced. Next morning madam who agreed to send money to do the repairs sent a message on WhatsApp saying an urgency came up and she needed to travel and will be back same time next week. This was Wednesday. In my mind I was like, really?! That means no work this week be that. Each day I tried to use the car to see if I could manage it to work, for where? Once car is hot like this gear won’t select again but the acceleration can go as high as 6-7 sometimes before gear picks. Men... as a fellow car owner I was not ok within I just vex park car at home.

I call my young madam, she wouldn’t pick up instead she will send a DM that I should find a way to fix things. I took car to my mechanics a gear specialist, spent about 7k both on fuel to test drive for almost 3hours for the guy to know the exalt way it does, he did his work. After that the engine check sign went off and car seems to be ok. Oya na make I go work, problem still persist, gear wasn’t still ok, my mechanic said he still need to drive the car to see how far... to cut the long story short. Thursday last week or there about I called my young madam she still wouldn’t pickup I simply sent her a text, “babe I’m returning your car” she said I should drop it with somebody, I said no I can’t do that I collected car from you and nobody was there when I was picking the car from you so why should I hand it over to somebody I do not know. I’ll wait till you return then bring the car to you. Since I’ve ran out of cash to fix the problem car will be parked at my place till you’re ready.

The next day evening madam called me that she was around, I said fine, I’ll be coming the following morning, the next morning my wife said we need to take my son to the hospital has the little boy was running temperature. Will I say because I want to return car I won’t attend to my family? No way!

I quickly sent her a text telling her something or urgency came up even letting her know I’d to visit a hospital. I noticed she didn’t read my message even after several hours. My plan was after returning I’ll take the car to her. I’ve successfully dropped my son and the mother at the hospital let me quickly check something close by while doctors was doing his thing, my young madam called,
“Where are you, I’m in your area, I just read you message I hope all is well”.
Me, yes all is well but I’m heading back to the hospital now, this is exactly where I am right now stocked in traffic I should be back before 2pm if you would still be around.
She, “yes I’ll be waiting then”.

After like 30+ still in the traffic to the hospital I saw my young madam highlighted from a bike. I just jejely opened the door.
Me, good afternoon with little smile on my face.
She, “can we go to Agor now?”
Me, why?! I can’t. Was still talking when she interrupted.
Ok pull over. I didn’t even argue, as the traffic moved she repeated. Pull over pull over.
I was like why don’t we go to my house let’s talk or are we having any issues? Or who will drive you home from here cause I know she can’t even drive.
She kept saying, pull over. Don’t worry about that.
I didn’t even argued I just simply pulled over. She just off the engine herself and then took the keys.

Me I just take my little things, came out of the vehicle and immediately she locked the car. Na so me I carry my karya stopped bike move. When home pickup my car then to the hospital and picked up my family.
grin grin. Symptoms be like dat of honda cars.....@@@young fine and sexy single madam grin

5) You shouldn't even have brought this experience to nairaland. She met you here. If ehailing didn't work for you both, doesn't mean something else won't. You have actually painted her as bad, which may not be the case

No vex for my comment oh. We learn everyday,
and it's just my opinion.

More blessings, brother

Why didn’t you return the car the moment you discovered the faults?

Did you sign any document before resuming work?

What is contained in the document?

Why didn’t you use your car for family runs?
For heaven sake what is wrong using a car I’m renting for any purpose, I can decide to park the car in the house or use it to do what ever provided i do not bridge the contract agreement.

Why are you guys not asking why I spent my personal money in the car yet I still paid for days and week car didn’t work?

Let’s try to be rational in our judgment please. Just barely 17days car was under my custody I only used it to work less than 6days on and off and I still paid for 1st week, spent more than 7k trying to solve some problem and then also did servicing due to shortage of engine oil. You all know the type of oil corolla uses calculate the cost.

I really like how @izzou pointed out some things which is the mistake was that I would have handed over the car to the person she wanted me to but men everyone has reasons to their actions. What if I take that action and then in the process before she return something else happens which court will judge to my favor that I handed a call to somebody else instead of the person I collected it from? This is Nigeria and sh*t happens especially when you’re dealing with a woman you just have to be very careful.

Just thoughts.

Owner said go to my house and the car to Mr. A. I still don't understand why you think its best you keep it and try to work on it. Everyone including you will agree why you didn't return it as she proposed was because you were *Lying*

She never asked or agreed you use your personal money or mechanic for its repair. You did that because you felt the 7k won't bite and for a greater good ahead.

Return my car I'm around (granted she was even in the neighborhood waiting for you). A car you claimed not working yet was able to take you around for hospital runs? Red flag.

Lastly... You look like if given a free opportunity you could help the lady bring the car back steadily to 89% okay to go. But no sir, let her be. She will fix it and sell it off (My guts).

And again.... How's your Child, hope everywhere good.

You are absolutely correct Dru. There are times you allow some people to wallow in their ignorance. You can't continue flogging a dead horse. All these informations are out there for everyone to see, regardless of where anyone lives. Why would an illegal chose to directly put himself in the line of fire by enlisting with Uber that will bring him face to face with law enforcement agencies that he's hiding from? Lol. Not even plausible to begin with. Only a die hard criminal would try that, maybe, those are the exceptions they are basing their arguments on.

I guess so ..doing uber with no correct papers.. Funny enough an uber driver was accuse of rape in my state.. The next day the guy took off ,they couldnt find him .. They said the guy was from Ghana.. Whether he is legal or not we dont know ..But for the fact they said he was from Ghana means they must have check is legal status.
When you don't have papers, the objective is to stay low. Stay away from things that can lead to police matter.. Things that can lead the police to be called etc ..well each to his own I guess. In these Trump era me can't take kind risk.. ..
So in all essence I guess illegal immigrants do uber. Uber I guess does not do proper background... sex offenders, criminals are not allow to do uber ..But I guess they still do it .. So if the rider accuse the driver of rape. And doesn't have to be violent to be called rape.. So the rider can sue uber for allowing a sex offender to work for them .. Eventhough uber considers drivers " Partner" .. They still can be held liable for certain actions on behalf of the drivers...

And also my friend told me that starting from next year. Drivers will have to tell their auto insurance company ,that their car has to listed as used for uber.. Meaning that your auto insurance rates will go up .. It means that you are now using your car for commercial purposes..
Na so it be for now ....

Bro did you missed where I said she asked me to take care of it? She too doesn’t want to lose down time while mechanic works in the car because automatically it will take either one or two days so I believe she was playing smart reason why she said I should take care of it.
Ok, I was calling her when the mechanic wanted to talk to her and explain in details to her and also the make her know the financial implications but no answer instead I should chat her up. How mechanic win take chat?

Gear doesn’t select after driving for like 20-30km doesn’t mean car can’t go within the environment na bro, and besides I was to take the car back to her same day I’d an emergency. So you’ll leave your family and chase work or business?

C’mon be rational men.

Family is cool, everywhere good scarra and thanks for asking
