What option do you choose when you cancel a ride ?
@BlakeDrives Жыл бұрын
On Lyft you just swipe up to cancel. I only cancel when I get a higher priced ride
@SoulRevealing Жыл бұрын
I haven’t had to use it yet but i heard on uber if you cancel for safety reasons it doesn’t count towards your cancellation rate. Not sure how many times you can use that reason though.

Thanks for watching! I've been thinking of ways to make the videos more interesting and not so repetitive. 👍

Don't ever apologize or feel guilty for protecting yourself. That's how you compromise and "feel bad" and then you get burnt. I always told my kids; if someone is offended SO F*ING WHAT! They'll get over it. And one time it paid off for my daughter. She was at the Rio and didn't get on the elevator because the dude didn't look right. Didn't worry about offending him. Guess what? He turned around and started following her. She had to run from him and find security. You're learning the areas. Don't go near Maryland Pkwy dude. And I would recommend no rides north or off Sahara period. And no rides to or from Fremont. Fremont St. is always making the news for people getting beat up, stabbed, shot and killed.

I was just in Vegas. One Uber driver told me they were building some type of race track on the streets and it might hurt the amount of rides they can do.

Always trust your instincts. If your gut is telling you something isn't right then it probably isn't. Get out and get out quick. You did exactly the right thing. Maybe the rider was on the up and up and maybe he wasn't. Its not worth it to find out though. Real bad looking area. One of the things new drivers were always warned about was riders asking to be picked up or dropped off behind something or in an alley late at night. Usually bad news in the areas we worked. Stay safe

Thinking about Uber/Lyft with a Tesla in Las Vegas. What’s the average hourly for working Friday night/Saturday night?
@BlakeDrives Жыл бұрын
I'd love to get a Tesla! I would say between $25-$35+/hr it all depends on which celebrity/event is in town.

Lol and it’s right across from one of the ritzy places in Vegas the brick wall your headlights are on has million dollar homes right on the other side of the wall. It’s sketchy in that area but relatively safe. “Says the guy with the hoodie 😂 “

I'm a Uber driver too and this video is misleading. This guy earnings was made on a good day when it was surging here in Vegas. It typically take 12 hours to make $200 here and that is a fact. He just want you to sign up under his affiliate link.
@BlakeDrives Жыл бұрын
So what’s misleading about the video? My earnings on this day was from a Tuesday and I’m not hiding anything. I show exactly what I made. So you think you have to work 12 hours to make $200? Based on what evidence is this considered a fact?
