    Tips for driving with uber.
    1. Dont chase the surge.
    2. Try and avoid taking rides more than 7 mins away.
    3. Dont take shit from anyone. Your not helping yourself or your fellow drivers.
    4. Get a dash cam
    5. Someone says they will tip you in the app is probably not gonna tip you.

    In Chicago, they turn off the Destination Filter during rush hour, so you can not use it to avoid the grueling airport trips.
    Also, if you are in the ghetto, they want to keep you available there for PR purposes, even if there is no demand at all, so they disable the DF.
    They also kill it during large events, so you can't hope for a long surge trip to take you home.
    Offering the destination filter was one of the nicest things Uber did for the drivers, but it is becoming less reliable as a day-planning tool and I think Uber would like to make it disappear.

      ParaLegalStar Same here in LA! Forget trying to set your DF at rush hour as it’s NOT going to work. The Algorithm is set to keep Driver’s slaving away! They need to give us one to get home, especially in a large metro area like Los Angeles. UGP LA 💖

    I always use my destination button to get back home at the end of the day but if I have to go offline to use the restroom it just goes away and I have to use my second one to continue going towards home. Tonight it got me within 10 miles from my house and it just went off, I didn't realize it, excepted my next ride and now I was going the opposite way. It's been very frustrating, what am I doing wrong??

    Got a question for you guys. Has any one tried destination mode with a set time when leaving? I’m thinking of using this at times when I want to do no more than 3 hours. Took a ride recently that took me from Pasadena to Lancaster and I ended up driving about 30 miles back with no ride and working longer than I would’ve like to. Wondering if setting a time for arrival back home can 1. Give you good enough amount of rides 2. Not take you very far. I’m assuming it would take you up to 30 miles away and only start taking into consideration the destination route when the time comes. True or false?

    Ever since they brought out the new app in June it’s better as you don’t have to keep resetting it. Different from the old app. They need a “Emergency Get Home Now” DF as a back up or roll over unused DF’s. Here in LA we could end up miles away! Doesn’t work at rush hour either. Do like it though, I always use it. Big cities need more!!! UGP LA💖

    Bro can you tell me what to do when I put my destination and it takes me through tolls??? We all know there’s nobody to pick up on tolls. I never have gotten one from a toll or a major highway, it’s a waste of a destination when u get off the tolls and close to home and then you get one 😒 what am I do do? Plz don’t say “don’t take the tolls” because it keeps rerouting to the tolls

    • @YourDriverMike
      @YourDriverMike  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      What's rerouting, Uber's navigation? Use Google Maps or Waze and select the "avoid tolls" option, that's what I do, I never take toll roads.

    • @chrisjenkins203
      @chrisjenkins203 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ikr a complete waste of time clicking on this video. It’s located in the upper right hand corner of the app, when you first open the Uber driver app and it looks like a little magnifying glass. Hope that can help…unlike this video…

      I think you should always have the option to put in your home address because if you can't, your only option is to go offline and dead head home. What a waste for the drivers and potential riders.

  • @ezoceanview

    Too bad you can only use it twice, I finished working hours earlier that I wanted too because I could not choose destination home.

  • @drfrankm
    @drfrankm 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Two filters is terrible. Also, I discovered, that uber will not allow you to turn on destination mode if you are in an area where there is rush hour traffic. Example is when I am in Los Angeles trying to get back home to San Diego during rush hour, destination filter won't turn on.

  • @getoverhere1225

    Wow, how do you actually get to and use the destination filter.

    • @YourDriverMike
      @YourDriverMike  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Kevin, in the upper left hand corner of your driver app click on the magnifying glass. This will open your destination filter if available.

    • @chrisjenkins203
      @chrisjenkins203 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Btw, after watching a different video that did explain the basics, it’s in the upper *RIGHT* hand corner, not the _left._

  • @red32303

    Surge doesn’t apply when destination filter is on. This guy doesn’t know what he is talking about

  • @mjohnsimmons

    Really you should show how to use

  • @bother1844

      Robert Chittenden Lyft gives you six but if you haven’t used it it only last 10-30 min then if you don’t find a ride during that time you’ve wasted a filter

    • @UGPVlogsLA
      @UGPVlogsLA 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sorry but LYFT sucks big time! UBER rules the LA market. That’s why Lyft try and give those shady pax 50 cent fares!!! No thanks, I’ll stick to Uber

      You can turn it off the same way you turned it on. You can also go offline momentarily

      Hi Tom, on the main screen of your Uber app in the top left do you see a magnifying glass? That is now used to set your destination filter.
