    With the increasing popularity of platforms like Uber, you might be interested in making some good money by driving people around. Even better, you might already be an Uber driver. However, there are a few tips and tricks that you should know while you’re driving around with strangers. While most articles and guides focus on the safety of passengers, you as a driver need to be cautious as well. Some of the tips can help you ensure the safety of both the passenger and yourself. If you can maximize the safety of everyone in the car then you’re more likely to receive positive reviews from the passengers and you’ll also avoid any unfortunate circumstances.

    In this article, we’re going to take a look at some of these tips that you can implement to enhance your safety and the overall experience. Following safety procedures is one of the most important things to do. If you’re already prepared to deal with any issues that arise while you’re busy completing a trip, you can also minimize its impacts by a huge extent. So let’s get to it and find out the most important safety trickles for you if you’re an Uber driver.

    1. Avoid Distractions

    The biggest cause of an accident while driving is being distracted. You should strive to eliminate all the different distractions present in your car as much as possible. This will ensure that you can focus on the road that lies ahead of you rather than being distracted by things like mobile phones, tangled wires, loud music, or anything else. It’s also advisable that you get yourself a mobile phone holder so that you can easily use your mobile for navigation without having to bend down or take your eyes off the road. You should try to use your mobile phone only for important purposes like accepting rides or navigating and try to avoid text messaging or watching videos while driving. There are many other accessories that you can try out to avoid distractions like a dedicated navigation system installed in your car that will help you avoid the usage of mobile while driving altogether.

    2. Have a Lawyer Ready

    If you can arrange to have a lawyer on standby then you’ll greatly reduce any hassles that you might face in case of an accident or any other legal issue. Since you’re going to be driving a lot, you need to have a solid legal action plan to handle all the possible complications. A lawyer with expertise in an uber accident will come in handy when you need to initiate a lawsuit against someone who has hit your car. If you can take legal action on time, you’re more likely to be properly compensated for your losses. This is why it’s advisable to have a lawyer on standby as they can help you out with a variety of issues like fines, accidents, legal cases by customers, tickets, or anything else.

    3. Verify the Passengers

    This is one of those pieces of advice that’s often given to the passengers due to the supposedly unreliable nature of Uber. However, this tip is more applicable to Uber drivers due to the fact that you’ll be accepting to drive different kinds of people. Anyone can create an account on Uber and hire a cab due to the relaxed verification mechanisms for passengers. You have to be cautious while accepting rides and while verifying the details of a passenger. If you feel like there’s something fishy going on, you’re free to cancel the ride because your safety is more important than any amount of money. The unscrupulous elements may try to rob, carjack, or even frame you for things you didn’t do. So exercise caution and be very vigilant about the customer you choose.

    These are some of the tips that you should implement while you’re driving your Uber. Not only will these tips help you have a hassle-free experience but you’ll also be able to ensure maximum customer satisfaction by showing that you’re an attentive and cautious driver. The general tips provided everywhere else usually tend to focus only on the passengers and their safety but these tips are focused on the driver only. If you can implement these tips and stay cautious at all times, you’ll be able to avoid much larger expenses in the future. These might seem like a wasteful investment but the return on investment is very high in these cases. Just remember that safety is better than cure and it doesn’t apply anywhere better than an Uber that your livelihood depends on.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

📌 Graskop, Mpumalanga

    • Look what’s arrived in South Africa 🇿🇦

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
