i am thinking of driving consistently for 8 hours a day, to replace my day job temporarily.
what are the time range that can usually get constant demand?

7-9 am, 12-2 pm, 5-7 pm.
Unless your current job pays less than 2k per month, it's not a good deal.
You see ppl making 2k gross income per week, but that is because they are driving for 80-90 hours per week.
Which is equivalent to doing double full-time job.

Some more,
1. Have to minus petrol and maintenance.
2. There is always a risk by being on the road.
3. New law is going to be tabled in the parliament very soon.

You should experience it yourself by driving a couple of hours here and there for the "feel".
Then only make a decision.

Thanks. I need to find alternative source of income to replace my current job loss.
I will stick with meeting 8-9 hours work per day to help me earn some money to support my living cost, car and house loan for the next few months...

I'm not sure how many % from the gross income will be taken out by petrol and maintenance, as I am driving a 2.0 Lancer.
Other alternative is to be a tutor but I am not so keen...

i have registered for Uber and now can see my status as active as uber driver. Do i need to attend any briefing physically before I start driving. At the moment, I don't dare to toggle the switch button to active because scared any drive I do is invalid if I havent undergo any briefing or other requisites...

documents all verified already..

How did you register?
Last time, the person who referred me to Uber gave me briefing, and one time test drive.
