Hi Guys, just started driving yesterday as an uber driver, would like to ask all the sifu out there, is SPAD still taking away uber driver's cars? If yes, how do you avoid them?

Another question i'ld like to ask is how many of you have a PSV license? does it really come in handy when it comes to picking up undercover agents for SPAD?

Uber is actually a cashless system so i think SPAD could not take any action on you whether you have PSV or not doesn't really matter, your main concern would be the taxi drivers in KL

Hi guys, interested to drive but will using HRV cause me to lose money? Not making much is fine as long as not going to end up paying to drive ppl around.

Another question, since I am in Penang. Do you need to drive ppl cross the bridge to mainland? Or it is not within coverage?

Since I'm planning to drive in Penang and not KL, what are the risk I should get note of?

Thanks heap! 😉

Not yet.
Base Fare: RM1.00
RM0.50 / KM
RM0.25 / Min.

Lets say: 10KM + 20mins = RM1.00 + RM5.00 + 5.00 = RM11.00
Your earning is: RM8.25

An example is if you hailed from the Taylor's Lakeside Campus at Sunway, the driver may be at the outer most lane heading towards the Sunway toll to Puchong already, so your GPS may report that he is 5 mins away, but it may be too difficult for him to cut 3 lanes to the left so last minute to turn into Taylor's. So he has to pay the toll, make a U-turn at Puchong and pay another toll and come pick you.

This is a very usual thing that happens, which I feel a lot of riders don't understand or know about, but it's something the driver can communicate to the rider in advance.
*
in an event the driver faces the situation as per the example given, the driver shouldn't accept the ride. it is wiser to let the request drop and allow other drivers to pick up.

not necessary in the coverage area....the rider could request drive till Dannok also but it is very unlikely though it is possible

Nope. The app doesnt tell you rider's destination until u "Begin Trip"

Best way is to call the rider directly and ask his/her destination
