Really there is no offense except they know u are doing ehailing with it. In which case, it is hackney permit they will require of u.
The bottleneck has always been from d ehailing coys. But if they no longer request for Lagos roadworthiness certificate to and drive in Lagos then to hell with Lagos State plate number.
Just look for someone living in one of the remote states, they will and send all ur documents via waybill, same thing for yearly renewal. U don't need to travel anywhere.

NB: I learnt Abuja also does vehicle inspection like Lagos before Roadworthiness certificate is issued.
You can by the Inspection also. I have renewed several Abuja registrations from the comfort of my bed. I simply call my plug to get it done. He asks for the state the document it's going to and he waybills it.

This thing is not as hard as you guys seems it is.

Ooh, that's good then.
The brother that asked about this originally should see this.
Make dem RS & VIO no go run am street.
@the bold, I don't think this is totally best to do.
Before you send money to someone to do it for you over there and have it waybill to you, you have done your stuff here and dusted.
The link you have over there fit mess you up.
Make subsequent renewal should just be done here to avoid stories.
Make him just dey run him things here by himself.


Much respect, sir.
Nothing to worry about bro..there's a guy on NL here; unikazzy, that does it....If you renew here in Lagos, you have successfully given Lagos your vechicle data which means the camera can now run your plates..

Even here in Lagos, I have renewed my Lagos documents and I didn't collect the original copies, I just print out the scanned copies and I'm good to go...the man kept reminding me to come for it...car wey I don sell since grin

Good day my people, I just purchased a Toyota Corolla 2010 model for the purpose of InDrive/Bolt/Uber purposes. I want to drive it myself because am not okay with the comment about giving it out to.

My driver Licence is not ready but i have a friend who has, can I use his info to while I drive the vehicle?

Please advise me! I am open to it. Also tell me anything I might have forgot to ask.

Can't specify time for you to hustle as a newbie, work from morning till night then after sometimes, you can personally decide which time favours you the most.

Use 5w-30 synthetic oil for your car and set the trip A or B to 0.0 on every oil change and whenever it gets to 5000km or 3000miles, change the oil and filter, and reset the trip A or B back to 0.0 and repeat same thing.

you can with your friend's license but make sure it is your own picture you use cox of periodical verification.

All the best!

your odometer is in miles, and all you need is your car documents and a license...

since you're using your friends license, let the name tally with the name you will provide but the picture you will should be yours.

try that 1st but ain't 💯 % if it will work tho.

The odometer in a 2010 Toyota Corolla is typically displayed in miles. While you may be able to switch to kilometers, the default setting is usually miles. You can usually change the units of measurement by accessing the car's settings through the steering wheel controls.


PLEASE DO ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO CHANGE IT TO KILOMETERS? It will really help me

You don't need to use anybody's DL. If you go for capture, they will give you a temporary DL. You can use that. Even when it expires and your original DL isn't ready, they(DL's office) will stamp, sign and extend the date further on a photocopied temporary DL. What you want to do is impersonation. It is an offence against the law. Don't do it

For the "holy barbiturate", I'm only obeying 1st Peter 1:16.
Using his friend's DL on the app and using it to work is still impersonation, there's no 2 ways about it. I don't know how a right thinking person would want to justify such!

There's no hurry in life! After cover letter, he would definitely be captured and after capture, they will issue temporary DL, which is actually given the day of capture.

Advising people on how to cut corners is shameful to say the least.

oga sit down.

person ask if he can use his friend's license to so he can start working, do you know how long it will take for him to be called for capturing?

he asked something and I provided answer to his question, it's in his decision to decide whether to wait for him to capture and use his license or go ahead with his friend's license to start work.



you dey talk like say you never do something to scale through a tedious process.

I'm not forming. I don't cut corners. Telling me to sit down like I'm standing in your house or your way is irrelevant to the talk.
You have been known as one who loves to cut corners and cheat. So I understand where your anger is coming from.

Investing 5.7m in this hustle, wrong move
Using 2.4l engine for this hustle, wrong move

You should be thinking of how to maximise your profit and recoupe your capital in the shortest possible time frame

What you should look for is a 1.0 -1.8l engine at most, the cheapest available car brand, capital wise and maintenance wise
Based on your advise , are hyundai and kio brands of. Cars still okay considering Toyota is now too pricey ??

Please what platform accepts Toyota Pencil year 2001 and what are the key things I need to know about Road Safety, LASTMA and VIO in order to avoid embarrassment?

Yes sure
Hyundai accent 06-08 engine is just 600k and that's the only expensive part

Other parts are very pocket friendly and relatively cheaper than the corolla

Besides, it's very rugged, fuel efficient and reliable

I hope the car is tokunbo. If the car is tokunbo than you are in the best position now to pamper the car. Especially since you be the only driver.......


For the oil specifications, factory recommends 0w20.. using the factory recommended oil will help you burn less fuel .....

The engine oil brand of choice is Mobil 1 , fake full plenty original. But am your plug for original Mobil 1 .... You can do oil change every 7k miles or 11600km or every six months whichever comes first...


Using the wrong oil will lead to this (pic1)



And using the factory recommended oil and original Mobil 1 will lead to this (Pic 2)

Baba we are still waiting for the container to clear. It was supposed to come out Thursday, keeping my fingers crossed hopefully next week , we can start selling.

Since 5w20 has very low demand,I don't think I brought any in for this container. 5w30 and 0w20

I was stopped by police, checked papers. I am using my old plate number on my new car. Which is EXISTING. I have the existing number place registration paper, old proof ownership showing old car. But renewed proof of ownership showing my current car. Now, police said I must have court papers showing I use my old plate on my new car. I was shocked to my anus. grin.After serious arguments about that, took me to their station, which I won't allow ordinarily( I prefer doing normal than drive inside station) but I was interested to get to see their ogas, hoping they will correct him, their own is even worse, we met 3 different boss, all saying same thing.,Eventually, I concluded, I am dealing with Nigeria police. My mistake is, trying to explaining to them and forgot I am dealing with Nigerian police.This is how it has been for years, just get existing number plate paper. They spoke with the person in charge of my paper renewal, that one makes it worse because she was so annoyed hearing such. You can't drag with them, so is either I wait till Tuesday to go customary court and do the the paper(if there is anything like that) or I do normal. I chose the later... Let the rotting continues.
