solid3: Lol...Yes, cos the person managing it for you is getting his commission too. Except you are paying the person management fee already. Or if you can, u get a driver and manage your driver yourself and collect your 25k direct. ![]() 3 Likes |

IFSHR: I saw this and login to my bolt app and swiped “Go online”and guess what ? gbagan gbagan na so I quickly accept ooh and waited for rider to cancel. The last time I saw this app was in 2019 March/April. Does that mean that old drivers don’t need to re-upload docs like insurance, road worthiness and likes. Well let me try Uber if it will work too |

To the main matter Bros, Abeg if na you I tried settling the issue of insurance after the accident this morning, how did it go ? Cos I realized the Uber lady wasn’t ready to use insurance and me no get time. House let me brief you. There was an accident in Surulere Uber lady red Toyota Camry and Uber guy grey Toyota Corolla. Corolla guy was at fault and agreed to use his insurance but the girl said 3rd party insurance won’t work, I tried to convince her that it works but didn’t agree, she called plenty people to intervene. Na there I run i need social distance biko. But I wish to know how far cos after 3hrs they were still there |

BAZ001: You hit my car and you've a 3rd party insurance and you're telling me to talk to your insurance while i let you go?? Azin you dey mad ni ![]() The guy would have settle the lady and then take pictures and other evidence needed for him to reclaim the money he gave her from the insurance. Simple. He'll pay more if they find themselves for police station. This is the advice you would have given to the guy bros not trying to explain to the young lady. 2 Likes |

Felicity0001: You know say you long epistle they confuse people most times rather than convincing. Are you saying you don’t have to take the victim to the insurance company? All you need is to take pictures and go to insurance company to get refund ? Pls if you ve done that before give me the insurance coy nam. Well the little I know about insurance, they will rather pay your mechanic/ parts than give either of you cash just like that. They will get estimate from your Mecho or offer to take to their own Mecho if you don’t mind. So at what point will dey pay back , by only seeing pictures and not the main car ? |

Wartsnigeria: Get it registered and recruit a driver for it then. 25k is standard for a corolla. Don't do 100% maintenance but pls dont ask me "why?" Fix the car to a good standard, that's if it has any issue. Carry out the first servicing. Body work? Fix it and spray. The driver should be taking care of servicing at every 2000 or 3000miles. This us how you shiuld go about it. Reset the "A" odo meter then tell him to bring the car to you @every 2000,2500 or 3000miles (according to professional advice) for servicing and when he's coming he should come along side a semi synthetic oil (it's N5,500 for the now). Oil filter maybe 1500 or the 2.5k own. But if you choose to use full synthetic Sir please know that no driver will be ready to do that from his/her pocket ooh so you may have to come on that. As for the maintenance, let driver handle minor issues but if at the end of the month the accumulation on general maintenance that very minth is above 10k and within 20k on his path with a total remittance of N100k, then it will be nice of you to do a refund to him like a bonus for that month. For cases of accident, theft and other kinds... Sir pls get a comprehensive insurance. For minor scratches and bashes driver should be able to take care of it without even involving you or the insurance company. Me if I jam person or person jam me I take care of it without even involving my partner unless it's very serious. i.e how me I work ooh. I can't talk for another person. Insurance companies wey get sense should know that they should install a tracker on their cars. You can install yourself for person tracking and to aviod stories like the one luxerydriver posted lately on his channel. P.S: pictorial evidence of repairs in your absence should be forwarded to you WhatsApp for records keeping. Am I missing any thing? Please ask where necessary. These are the few managerial skills I've acquired in my few years on the hustle. 9 Likes |

emmancecute: Abegi...which one be fare doesn't fit the car...people are using 2016 corolla, 2014 Camry, 2012 Matrix, and different SUVs. Warts just said he uses Lexus hybrid...most important thing is knowing cost of parts, fuel consumption and durability of the car. lolitadauz: The car is good for the business: fuel consumption is good, Cost of parts are generally fair and Car is strong and durable... Its a Honda afteral. I assume u have it already but if u want to buy then I advise u go for an earlier year cos of cost of purchase. 1 Like |

BAZ001: Boss my episodes are as a reault of verse experience and challenges of life I've encountered and if all you get from them is confusion then I can Only say you've not started experiencing life in its fullest. Anyways, experience from the picture below, mutual benefit insurance. The man that ran into my car gave me N50k only, a reclaim form was given to me by my partner from his Ins. Agent. I drafted cost of repair and wrote my statement, took a snap copy of the other man's Ins. Doc (3rd), stated amouth that i received. Every expenses was drafted on a latter headed format of the mechanic with his account details. Everything including pictures forwarded to Ins.Agent for venting and processing. The whole process can take a month or there about but if you have a good rapo with your Ins.Agent you can have a reclaim within a month. That's for comprehensive I don't know neither have I heard where 3rd party insurance gave or did anything. If you have experience before please share let's also learn from you. I hope that with these few points of my with pictorial evidence I've been able to convince and not confuse you need not take both cars to insurance before accident issues can be resolved.

lolitadauz: Ma'am the categories of cars I consider too big for the hustle are cars with bigger engines like V6 and above. People use 2010 and above for the hustle and they are still having good income. If you can afford it pls go ahead but it will be wise to instead get a Toyota because a day will come when you'll consider selling the car and its imperative to consider the resale value when compared to the year, model and class of the car. So I would advise you buy 2010 corolla. |

northbird: Ha! Boss this is base on a lot of parameters oooh. Like of your farm location, agr of the cassava(12-18months are always expensive), spacie, the season/time at which you're selling, how well planted the farm is, maintenance of your farm, animal invasion and a few more. Like in Benin where my farm is situated, we at feltheoagrofarms sold an acre for N250k immediately after the lockdown. |

Felicity0001: You are correct on some aspects but because this is public space and many people will see this now and want to replicate let me categorically state that when u drive on rental, d owner of the car is d owner of the car, so am thinking why a driver will be servicing and doing repairs in my car for me. Why will he use his money to improve my asset for me?? To cut long story short, except when the driver is complicit or at fault, I/Insurance will do the repairs, I do the regular servicing and I have control over all my vehicles (trackers). Don't allow somebody go and be repairing car half harzardly, or use fake parts for you, or be giving stories of d cost of repairs later. Logistics 101: driver must inform owner and get permission for every pin he is removing, adding, fixing, adjusting, improving, enhancing or whatever on the vehicle he is driving. If its an emergency its understandable that u see yourself out of the situation. Haven said that, I don't mean I fix flat tyres of 1k for driver o. I think this practice of drivers doing some level of repair is to make driver responsible for the car somewhat, but sometimes its vindictive and riding because driver may not have a choice. The car owner should repair his vehicles so he can keep track of the car repair history, and be knowledgeable about the car as much as d driver is, so if tomorrow driver leaves, he will not be at the mercy of anybody. I have also seen how small patch patch 3k repair instead of 10k now caused 50k damage. Driver will always choose the small patch patch repairs. Before u come for me, I have driven for people, and I have people driving for me now so I don wear the two shoes. This is global best practice, not just what I do. 4 Likes |

Pearl1910:to the poster, don't listen to this advise. by the time maintenance sets in, you will understand better. if the car is solely for ehailing, abeg get the regular corolla or the lower generation civic my 2 cents! 2 Likes |
