Glithronix:

I was about asking this same question.

Much respect, boss.

Baba, those traffic light cameras' main purpose is to detect vehicles with expired papers.

Standard. Rider seated at the back. No comm. chemistry btw rider n driver.

Driver looking bored and wearing a long look

Lolz...🤣🤣🤣

northbird:


Fines as per not renewing on time or traffic violation fines.

Hackney permit expired

My challenge is how do you handle the inspection aspect? Will you now drive the cars to Abuja? In all, I think you should stick to Lagos number. There are apps you can use to set reminders for each car documents expiry dates.

Its only Lagos state that does inspection before Road worthiness certificate is issued.
So d idea is if u have another state plate number u r free from that procedure every year. And its in the process of inspection they check if u have any violation or outstanding fines to pay. So if u can renew ur documents without going for inspection then it will be great.

I dont believe in cameras actually. Well ,that's a gist for another day.

There's a timing on the system. If the system does not get a renewal on a certain date say (14days afterwards).
It will list out those numbers and a fine will be attached to it on the vis platform. Straight n easy.

People usually say SARS n military men use Juju..
I chuckle.. if you stay long enough in a trade/profession.. your intuition comes into play when a decision is to be made. There will always be margins for errors, but I can assure you,its going to be minimal

This one is deep as I still believe some of them dip. It may work or not, but most men don’t walk around on empty.

Someone need a ride from Lagos airport ( Local terminal) to Idiroko (Ogun State), who's interested?

konkoabove:

I think Readadream is right provided they have not changed the policy recently in Abuja; Wike effect. You are used to Lagos draconian laws Vikings should still have in Abuja if he is reachable

Only Lagos inspect, other states doesn’t inspect. The thing self is getting stale and a way to steal. What’s the point when we still have unroadworthy cars everywhere.

There's a camera bro. And it works 24/7. My car was captured at night 2months after the rwc expired and I didn't renew it on purpose, I was going to discard the registration anyways.

RWC expired Dec 16, camera captured it around Feb.

Readadream, You got this image from the alert
they sent to you.
You are the first person that actually provided proof .. cos the angle of that capture shows its an elevated one.

Drivers yakpa for Rida App o
I am even tempted to believe there are more drivers on Indrive than Bolt now.
So tell me, why aren't they overthrowing Bolt?
When Taxify started newly, its the Riders that gave them impetus. Drivers like me were still using both apps, but when a driver discovers he is getting more trips on Taxify, they naturally will always be on d App. Thats because Taxify had now come to overtake Uber on number of Riders because of cheap fares and Bonuses they enjoyed on Taxify

Woo! Oremi u win abeg... My thinking is now beyond ehailing... I no get time for this worthless subject abeg

Pearl1910:


My advise is leave this country or find a way to earn in FX
But if u desire to enter emailing business, then buy 2 small naija used cars still in good condition and put on the road.
U will still sell the cars at a profit whenever u want out of the business.
But there still many things u can do with ur funds.

Let me see what the slowpoke pope191 will say about this because this was my honest advice to the young man.

If you dint want to japa add 1m to that figure dm me I'll show you way in real Estate... In less than 6yrs I swear to God you'll be 50 X richer

pope191:


Forget it! Indrive is king 😂 but on the honest side, what I am trying to say is there is always more time, tho I am trying to be on the ease side. I know you won’t agree to this submission, but I feel drivers should factor their health into whatever they are doing. 11 hours you did is not bad atall. For me, health is what I put on check first and not money. Herbert case tot me few lessons as well..: up and down, nah people go still help man enjoy this money. As for Bolt? They blocking me after covid just make me dislike the app, It’s too insensitive of them. Just like the are unblocking drivers now and they are expecting them to jump on the app. If nah me, I go block them back. Let’s do two can play.

On Feli, I am not the type that post earning 😂 just need he knows, we can work and chew gum at the same time. I have people that have boutique or other business and still drive. I can go inspect and do car sales business this morning and by 10 enter my ride and still make good money(money no deh reach) and many entries to market, it’s not be claiming titles, are you getting it right? What’s the point of selling your car, when you can juggle both. Who even try to live on one stream of income for this Lagos? We are online and I believe wetin we no understand about each other wetin we understand sha.

Capital MUMU na him u be tru tru... Chai!!!

U think I'm like u that live all ur low life in NL?

Dey play!

I don't even advise anyone to go into ehailing again and here you're suggesting I return back to the wheel... Bas* tard

You will grow grey hair watin... I dint use one car more than 3yrs... Family is growing so why should I drive a sedan when there is a Jeep with 7 seating capacity?

Poor man mentality

From a reliable source, Abuja inspects too.

If this us true then Abuja is canceled out of my options. I dey reason Zamfara or Gombe. E go tey before those people start to they do inspection

Thanks for the update

But I have been telling u since 19kokoro that elevated cameras capture vehicles too. Both for expired documents and for traffic offences like beating traffic light.

U can't be comparing car experience in Congo and in Nigeria. They are worlds apart.

Secondly, higher fuel consumption associated with AC is a no brainer...anything that exerts more load on your engine ( in this case the compressor) will definitely make the engine consume more fuel in other to carry that load efficiently.
As a scientist u shouldn't be told this.

I’m talking about the mentality of Nigerians.
Not the experience.
99% of cars in Nigeria are Tokunbo’s
In this context
is it Tokunbo Matrix 4WD that has transmission issues ? or Nigerian used Matrix 4WD ?
Don’t buy Honda accord its hand will pull off?
Don’t buy Mercedes Benz it consumes more fuel.
Don’t buy vovlo it’s too heavy
So we all focus on over priced Toyota & Honda’s civics.
And ignore Kia, Volkswagen and Mazda products

I still disagree partially with fuel consumption and AC
cos if you have your windows down on a long distance it will consume more fuel than AC unless you start crawling and riders will still complain.


Aircon vs Windows Down

Although your aircon increases fuel consumption, driving with your windows down can also lead to a reduction in fuel efficiency. When your windows are lowered, the wind rushes into your vehicle. This creates a drag force that makes it harder to power your car. This also leads your vehicle to consume more fuel overall. It’s likely that you’ll burn less fuel when the AC is on.

So, which is more fuel efficient – opening your windows, or using your air conditioning? Research suggests that you should base it on the speed you’re travelling.

Poor man mentality

Do you have a vehicle with 7 seater? Your best life will always be in your dreams and it will be blurry because your subconscious mind still won’t b at peace with nature. a car since 01/01/2024 and you are here dancing like worm they sprinkle Salt.

Pele! Hunger be your second name… I no get pity for you weyrey

When you fail to work for yours, you’ll always wish for what other have. So you don’t have 5m and yet you think dragging with who can feed your household will make you whole. Funny! Illusion of imagination…. Continue! Hopefully, you’ll use it to pay your first rent someday.

The least I could do baba. You help a lot on this thread.

Yes, when you try to contest the bill, there's a place where you can check the 'incidence'. It takes you to a page that will show you how it was captured.

Make I drop update,
It might help someone save money in this Tinubu Nigeria.

If your car is shorting oil instead of going to ring it.
I heard you can mix this Lucas oil with your normal engine oil (synthetic or non synthetic oil) that it will stop after sometime two oil changes.

Don't try it, buy automatic if that's what you want.

How about your road worthiness, because without inspection you won’t get that. Unless you by that.
