Once you sign up and provide information, it will start your background check. It will also tell you how to get your car inspected. Most drivers think the best way to start driving Uber is hire a ridesharing approved vehicle.
Once you pass your background check and your car is cleared, you’ll get full access to the Uber Driver app and you can start accepting rides!
Things To Consider When You Start
Before you take your first passenger, I highly encourage you to ride at least once as a passenger yourself. You can’t know how to be a good driver if you don’t know what it’s like to be a passenger.
When you’re ready to start driving with Uber, consider these things:
Clean Your Car: No passenger wants to sit in a dirty car. The outside doesn’t need to have a wax and shine, but the inside should be clean and clutter-free. Also, make sure there are no foul odors!
Get A Phone Mount And Car Charger: You’ll be using your phone a lot – from the Uber Driver app to GPS. This can kill a phone battery if you don’t leave your phone plugged into a car charger. Also, keep your phone in a mount. It’s unsafe to hold your phone while driving – not only could you get a ticket, but you might scare your passenger.
To Talk Or Not To Talk: You need to follow your instinct here – but every drive should at least start with a greeting and a “how’s your day?” If the passenger is responsive and eager to talk, strike up a conversation. If they are staring at their phone, maybe it’s best to let them ride in silence. The biggest thing is to make the ride enjoyable for your passenger.
How To Be Successful
If you want to be a successful driver with Uber (making good money on your own time), you should constantly be learning.
Your riders expect you to be the expert of all things Uber. Stay educated on all things ridesharing by reading blogs or listening to podcasts.
Finally, keep working at it. You won’t be “successful” by our definition if you only drive once a month. It takes work – just like any side hustle does. You need to get out and drive for a few hours a day.
It might sound like a lot, but honestly, would you just have been watching TV instead?
