JPJ road block might kantoi

Though I doubt many drivers will kena saman for this with the law enforcement of today

That’s what I said before, some time back in this same thread.

Yes, equilibrium will be reached, a new norm will be formed. But consider this: is it easier to get a passenger with 100 drivers in your area, compare to just 10?

The dropout rate of driver will definitely be higher than passenger. Say, 100 drivers were serving 50 passengers. Now only got 25 drivers serving 50 passengers, leaving 25 passengers without a ride most of the time. If those 25 are invested in the ecosystem via GrabFood/pay/rewards, chances are they will give Grabcar another try. Unless really suay la, 100% of the time they can’t get a ride, then yes they might delete Grab app.

As I said before, biggest problem for drivers now is there are too many drivers. Now, Grab can solve this by allowing drivers to see how saturated an area is. Don’t even need bombastic programming. Just need a tiny area in the app with 5 minutes refresh time, to show that in this area, how many drivers are waiting for passenger. With this info drives can decide to wait it out with others or move on to area with less drivers, on top of the current passenger heat map. But Grab won’t do this either because they don’t have the programming prowess or it just doesn’t make extra money for them.

So, yes, PSV will cull away huge amount of drivers. Even if fare doesn’t stay up, the higher entry barrier would mean less people compete for potentially dwindling trips.

Only applicable for Grab trips. If want to drive for other platforms, better buy the annual add-on from insurance provider

Ya, that’s great if you only plan to drive for Grab.

Gojek wants to come in, and there are other platforms in Malaysia now. If they all don’t follow Grab to offer the same model, drivers will have to get the annual add-on, including those already paying daily insurance for Grab

Grab only accept driver registration with NRIC

Any non-Malaysian driving Grab are those renting account one

It means the average cancellation rate for ALL drivers was less than 3% for that week lol

So your 3% is high

Either that or the Grab system was high

Regardless just carry on, don’t pay too much attention to it as long as you are playing by the rules. Every now and then I get the same message for around 10%

It’s a warning that your CR is high, please lower by end of the week. If not, you get another message to lower your CR in the coming week. If you still don’t, it’s the banburger for you my friend

Relax, the warning trigger is fixed time base. If at that hour your CR is 50% because you cancelled one of the only two rides you accepted, or if your CR is higher than average at that point, you get the message.

Keyword is lower by the end of the week. Not by the end of hour or the day.

Also, so many people triggered by the Raymond driver in news because according to him, ehailing drivers can only wear white shirt and black pants after regulation. He ain’t the MOT yo, just a driver being interviewed. Probably haven’t even taken the PSV course.

Yep. You need a car insurance anyway even if you don’t plan to drive ehailing.

Normal insurance covers non-trip accidents. Add-on insurance covers trip accidents.

But I forgot about some detail in the Grab add-on lol, my bad. I can’t remember if it covers your car during a trip only, or the entire time your driver app is online (meaning, your driver app status is in available state).

Yep.

If you are far away and want to press arrive, it will warn you about you being far away. If you press anyway, then you don’t get the no-show option. This is to curb the no-show abuse from driver side.

You are suppose to arrive first before pressing. I know some places don’t allow to wait, but in the first place, riders should be waiting for drivers, not the other way around. If you have to move, then move away to a place you can stop but try not too far away, and tell rider why you have to move and where you are. Message it, and screenshot if you want to. Wait for 5 minutes, still no-show, then collect it.

Any dispute, refer to Grab messages screenshot.

Don’t give up. If enforcement is tight, which I believe it will be since Grab will kena big big saman if they don’t enforce it, fares will shoot up in a couple more days.

Then in August Mr Loke will talk about fare regulation, maybe even before that. Until then, it’s time to cash in on the big fares for short distances.

So far all signs aligned with my beliefs which I shared in here earlier. All the best to those still waiting for EVP, and for those waiting to make a killing this weekend, please rest well now and go full throttle later.

To all of you who are sitting out - no evp/psv yet? Sure is weird if you got both and still sit out

Meanwhile, SURGE AND HIGH FARE EVERYWHEERREEEE CHEONNNGGG AHHHH

I was, and I still am. Road blocks already being put in place lol and yesss the fare this morning is what most drivers here wanted. Cheong ahhhhhhh!

I doubt JPJ and etc will spend their whole day catching all the drivers all over Malaysia. Just beware of the usual road blocks especially in Klang valley Subang and Shah Alam.

It’s not his job to feed the working poor

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_poor

He is the transport minister, not the welfare minister

Taxi confirm happy today too because of spillover from under-served crowd in middle of KL today

https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2019...ailing-drivers/

Lol the U-turn

See, last time when I say it’s gonna happen, people here call me stupid trying to sound smart

To those who believed me, you’re welcome

So don’t go into middle of kl during peak traffic. I don’t do that at all. If I find myself in golden triangle about 4, I set destination to Subang, and slowly drive to time square until I get a hit to get out of the area.

Adapt or drop out.

So now you realise there are a lot of people here say they quit la gantung kunci la boycott la

In the end still read Grab news still feel triggered by changes and still drive for Grab
