Some people do not even take it as a side hustle anymore. They do it like their lives depends on it. It is a good business.

In my country, we also call it 'Grab a Taxi.' If I am that good at driving, why not to make it a hustle. However, it is best to do it in the capital of my country than in my city though.

This is not a bad business you just have to know how to drive perfectly to avoid the problem of road accident which used to be very risky and aides by the rules.

If I have a car, I won't even mind using it to drive Uber in the evenings. It is a viable side hustle for lots of people and even a main hustle for others. A car would turn to an asset this way rather than a liability.

When it was initially introduced, the concept of using taxi hailing apps to carry out one's public transport service business was lucrative. The sector has however slowly degenerated as drivers in my country are ever complaining about low profits owing to reductions in commissions and the introduction of various taxes.

But there is supposed to be a very high demand that would mitigate this disadvantages. It is still very viable in my country because of huge patronage. Almost every young person that has a car does it part time.

You can go for just ten rides in a day and you will go back home. You will even make a lot of money than people who are doing the normal transportation business but it also depends on your location

Driving for Uber is a good side hustle. It is getting very popular here. Many people do that over the weekend to earn extra money. You need to keep your car in good shape at all times.

Actually there are so many people who registered for uber and are making considerable amount of money from it and it is good actually, I don't know how to drive that is why I could not hire a car and register for uber.

Transportation is a basic need that everyone must patronize. Car hailing has its target customers though which are the upper middle class and elites. Some people are willing to part with an extra cash to enjoy the comfortability of an Uber.
