[OFFICIAL] SG Uber Drivers

[Pyro77]

If you own a car,

- U must register a transportation service company
- U must transfer the car from ur name to the new company
- Purchase a commercial Insurance for ur car

Ppl taught me to calculate the cost if you are driving full time. Car depreciation rate is crucial. Self maintenance.

If you rent car,

- average $40-50 per day? (not really sure)
- Self maintenance

Rent car need to pay parking and petrol nia. Road tax and maintenance is the company that loaned you the car taiji. Because you rent from them so must expect a good working car. Spoil can just change to new car.

Can try emailing them. I enquired liao. Got a list of approved companies that can lease the car from.

If I'm not wrong, average rental is $1000/month for a normal japanese saloon.

They gave u a list? I enquired, they ask me go to their office lim kopi... So I never go...

back in the 90s, leasing a twincab pickup cost $1500 per month. I suspect the rate might go up even higher?

No lah, I read online that there's a list of approved vendors or something like that.

Why must lim kopi?

I think you should specify which kind of Uber service you are referring to. uBerX, UberExec or uberTAXI (see: https://www.uber.com/cities/singapore). That would make the discussion much more helpful to others. I have clarified my post above, and I would like to add that the UberExec driver I talked to was employed by a limo service company as stated by rammsky.

They need to vet their drivers too. Like whether you're unkempt, speak good English, polite and friendly etc. Uber received a lot of flak in USA after incidents of their drivers were found guilty of assault or outrage of modesty.

I told her i interested in UberX, has my own car. Whether my car model is ok or not? Then ask how it works.

for those who own cars, just go and register a new trasnport company. SGD50.

then go convert insurance to commercial insurance.

u can drive without paying any rental. but most imptn car must be fully paid for.




i found out many those driver uber are insurance and property agent. daytime office hours drive uber, night time meet customers.

some actually like the uber arrangement. cos own time can use to ferry children and use for themselves. for 1k a mth, why not. i got one uncle i met he earns just enough to cover petrol, rental then rest of the day use car to go slack.

but heard many horror stories from drivers also.
