I'm just curious about how and under what basis they're towing cars at the moment...

If really kena tahan as kereta sapu... say lah giving my friend a ride...

Uber drivers are educated and civilised. In fact, Uber has opened up the same rights to taxis to be uber drivers as well.. those are the smart drivers who use their cab to find even more money... I have a lot of assumptions in my head about the group of cabbies who are creating this big fuss about uber...

Just read the news as link below, SPAD will disguise as a rider/passenger to request trip for Uber/Grabcar. In that case 100% caught in red handed.

Who know any driver running out of luck and meet SPAD operation? Car will be seize/tow and will be penalty or jail.

Anyone see Uber stand up to help these Uber driver victim?? Please share...

Any driver can share whether Uber really go thru background check? Or they just register online, provide driving license & Insurance copy and attend a short briefing. After they can just start driving and taking passenger.

Most my friend had stop driving Uber, and I bet most driver are new blood which driving less then 3 months.

Uber are just good for Rider & Uber Company, the loser are always the driver.

May i know whats wrong with these? You know we are comparing with malaysian taxi driver here.
I drove UBER for a few weekend as a part time while waiting to get into a new job. Managed to get RM500+ for maybe under 10 hours of work. tongue.gif

Its as you say, i entered the briefing for one hour, after that i can drive already.
But they did verify my IC, License.

If you feel so unsafe taking UBER please take your taxi..all the insurance and what not is still BS la
I have never taken UBER before...but my friend recommended me as a good part time.
It is smile.gif Im well aware of the risk SPAD pose..but if you feel so pussy about it then please dont do it smile.gif

Exactly. Please remember one thing.. Uber is NOT a Taxi service.. it is a RIDE-SHARING application. You tumpang your friend's car, and get paid for the share of petrol. I'm an Uber driver too... and I've heard so many good things about Uber drivers from the passengers themselves. Even the gwailos use Uber cos they confirm will kena rip-off by Taxis just by looking at skin colour.

And one more thing - it is as easy to get kicked out from Uber as It is to get in. Every passenger MUST rate the driver. Drivers STRIVE to maintain 5 star rating. I'm amazed how disciplined I am on the road when driving a passenger (normally like sakai) just so that I can maintain my 4.9* rating! I don't want to know what happens if I get a 3 star rating. Seriously.
