This video works well for not just Uber but just anybody who wants to have good set of tools in their car for any situation and for just regular cleaning of their car interior.
"They're going to be a little bit musty" lol that's a very kind description :)
Another good tip is to fit bespoke leatherette seat covers and to use rubber mats. This really reduces any concerns about soiling etc
Barry4B also use cat litter to soak up the liquid part and easier to clean up
Trying to sign up. My email had my exes last name, so it appears on profile. So they reject my docs, I guess because names don't match. I've written support. How do I change it myself.
Wendy Washington establish another email account and use the new email.
Barry4B yeah I only use rubber mats. I paid too much for my car for it to be smelling like vomit or beer in the fabric.
I would suggest putting a little vinegar in that soapy water because vinegar kills any scent and it's a disinfectant aaaand it's very cheap. I make my own cleaning solution with it and it works great. Some people are afraid of it because they fear the smell, I don't even pay it any attention anymore, besides it only lasts a few seconds and vinegar is oderless without using all those harmful chemicals.
Vinegar does not kill germs, viruses or bacteria however it will kill the smell of most things..
not true, it's an Acetic acid so it is actually a natural disinfectant.
Sorry, but you're partially right and partially wrong.. While Vinegar is 5% acetic acid, it will take care of some common germs, But to fully kill all germs, viruses and bacteria's, vinegar will not do that.. For instance vinegar will not kill bacteria like staphylococcus, E.coli, listeria an many bacteria's that can cause illnesses..
Also, vinegar can prevent mold growth but will not kill it once mold has already grown..

Add a few pumps of hand sanitizer to you soap and water solution. The hand sanitizer will help with stain and smell removal. the alcohol in the hand sanitizer works like dry cleaning solvent. I have been using this mixture for years in my car and it works extremely well.
Great tip.
Dude you're (the) example of the distinct difference between an amateur and a professional. Of course someone like you would rock an uber business. Unlike uber drivers in my city that are part timers/amateurs. I respect you.
I just got my first text from uber saying that I can drive for them now. Thank you for making this video. It helps people like me get a little orientation before taking off on the first drive
yes it is very helpful! thank you for taking the time to share this
you should also have coffee grinds if you are a uber driver.. someone gets sick on the floor just pour some on the vomit and takes away the smell. plus easy to clean up
cpcoasternut -- clever
thanks
cpcoasternut also cat litter helps with that too.
Thats a great way to never be abled to drink coffee again.
cpcoasternut yes. Works great for back of Semi truck trailers after delivery of smelly products like trash or onions also. Buy massive bulk of coffee grinds and it’s cheaper.
You may be a simple driver but you are a f in genius.
Coming from the man who didn't capitalize a brand, missed the comma in his sentence, used "a" instead of an, and didn't capitalize the letter "F". Oh yeah, I can't be an "F" in genius. There is NO "F" present. At least you spelled "Genius" right...LOL. Let me help you out. Here is an example of how your sentence should have read.
"You may be a Simple Driver, but you get an "F" in the genius department. Good Luck!
Surely you know that I was complimenting you and that "f in" was a polite way to say fuckin'. If not, ok.
WOW Jeff, I surely took that wrong brother. So many hateful people out here. I let their negativity rub off on me. My apologies. I'm big enough to accept that mistake and stand up for your comment. Thank you. I apologize publicly again. Gotta get my mind back right today :-)
Cool man, no one understands my humor! LOLOL

I am an Uber Driver part time and strongly considering full time. I appreciate the video and 20 items list.
Good video man
I keep a little basket of mints / candy on the side. People going out for the night need that fresh breath. Comes in handy
Noel Velasquez ....thx for the mints
There is an incident of a passenger taking a mint from an Uber driver and it turned out to be a date rape drug. I never take food from my Uber drivers
Desecration good point, but I rather stay safe then sorry
and what does it give you lol
@@esthergerlitz2359

I am new to ride sharing & I love your videos. Keep sharing. Thanks for the tips.
Excellent video. Thanks so much!
amazing video uber should pay you for this bro
rambo iii agreed. His videos are very thorough.
GREAT stuff dude. Thank you for the info!
Thank you kindly for the tips! Love your vids so far... Starting next week... Juiced to start! :D
auradilia
Excellent video, thanks for the tips.
Thanks for the tips Calvin. I'm considering becoming an Uber driver so this video was super helpful. Thanks again.
Calvin thank you so much. I haven't made my first trip yet, starting today. Your video made me relax a bit and for that I'm grateful. Peace brother.
I'm a new uber driver and your channel is so motivating. I quit my 9-5 for more freedom to work on my own career and uber has not only replaced my 9-5 income but it exceeded it... thank you so much for sharing your tips! I'm gonna be making a channel soon as well.
Amber Ingram what market do you drive in.. big or small
Calvin, first off thanks for you helpful videos as I am just starting out. Wanted to let you know that i found the hand held vac you recommended at my local Walmart and it was on clearance for $15.00. Yup, you read that correct $15.00... I bought the 2 they had left in stock. so instead of paying $60 if you're viewers read this check the local walmart's for this vac on clearance. Oh, and yes it is an excellent vac.
You got an absolute steal compared to what they are charging on amazon for it now. I used the link he posted for the vac and it is going for $510 plus $2000 shipping.
thanks Calvin! I just completed my sign up today and I'm interested in getting a camera. The gopro looks good, are you recording inside the car or the road outside? whats more important?
Calvin! Great video!! Thank you so much for the advice. As a new driver (had my first ride today) I thought I had everything I needed but I love the reasons you give for having these items on hand and I plan on getting all of them so Im ready. Thanks again!!
Excellent video and source for information.
A LOT OF GOOD INFORMATION
Thank you. I'm gonna be starting (hopefully) soon with this as my new business and these tips for items will definitely come in handy help.
thank you for this information. i am a new driver and i can already appreciate some of these items already. i was wondering what are some essentials and you have made it quite simple. the personal website is smart, VERY smart! all the best.
The title for this video should read "20 things every driver should have in the car" also add a good road side & first aid kit. Never admitted first aid to anyone, always give them the supplies to do it themselves. Protect and reduce your liability.
Admit*
I don't always comment on videos... But this is an excellent video! 👍
Thanks!
Manny Puga He's smart...
The Simple Driver awesome teaching voice 🤗
Bull shit do you think the passenger appreciate the curiosity of the driver.
Just signed up and finally got activated yesterday. I'm going to get out there today and give it a shot and get down to business. Over here in Tallahassee, i really appreciate your starter videos, they help a lot as to what to expect and how to come at it mentally. Keep up the fight and keep keeping on.
Excellent information, all of your video are "On Point" and "Appreciated!!!"
Really good stuff sir, I never comment but, your videos are so helpful
What type of camera did you record with? The video quality is great for this video. Thanks for the video
I shoot with a Sony a6300. Great cam.
Thanks so much Calvin. You have great info and deliver it with passion. I owe you!
Fantastic video Calvin! Thanks for the awesome tips bro!!
great advice. Thanks for all the info this will help me out and I'm driving. I've been driving for 3 years and half of the stuff I didn't think about. I didn't know about the vomit bags thanks again.
Andre Lewis I would love for you to share some of your experiences on TH-cam! I bet that you have a ton of them..
v
i suggest the lavender fabuloso mixed with a little water use as a wipe cleaner and a febreze type spray bottle required..
I'm in! I got blessed to be an uber driver. I'm checking your videos and you are very helpful. Thanks for sharing!
Hey Cal. great info I am considering it. Thanks man!
Hi also include a tissue/plastic gloves box,small brush and a tyre inflater to check your tyres pressure and some water bottle's
Water bottles is a waste of time
T ALI : I have had many passengers thank me for having the bottle of water after a busy night out, or hot day at the beach or from a busy work meeting.
lol ever had any spill water on cloth seats ruining your car for the rest of the night?
Endorphin Factory : I have to agree with you that you may have a point there. But that's "one" of the many reasons I only do office crowd & travellers during daytime. No nights or pub-crawls. Also getting my seats upholstered to vinyl to have easy cleanups, issues with fluids (of all types). You can't change everyone, But you can be prepared!
You can always offer them water when they get out
Audio Quality - Excellent. Video Quality - Excellent. Content - Excellent. Presentation - Excellent. Please keep up the good work.
I've been contemplating doing Uber/Lyft for a while now, doing research to assist me prior to signing up....this video has definitely made me consider those items as essential, which I certainly wouldn't have thought about until they were needed. And by that time, it would probably be too late to think about them. Thank you so much for the insight this venture, makes it seem a bit less daunting now!
Fabulous video. I was wondering if you could post a video or maybe ask a female fellow Uber driver to do tips for gals who want to get into Uber-particularly safety tips? That would be awesome! :)
Great Idea
Red Rose that's an awesome idea be safe out there I pray for the lords cover over all drivers especially the ladies just trying to make an honest living 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love your tips! Thanks!
CosmeticAffairs hey
Poi t\
Good stuff yo, keep it coming!
Excellent! Thank you. This is all stuff I would have figured out eventually - but you saved me a lot of heartaches, I'm sure. Now I can start with these items and be prepared for anything.
i suggest the squeegee with the handle instead, just like they have at the gas station. at least it has a long handle on it instead. if your car is wet you don't want your clothes wet from leaning on the car.
Great video! It would be awesome of you provided links for these items.
I did, they are in the description.
Just finished my application to drive with Uber in South Florida. Thanks for all the tips! Took note of them all....
You are so informative and organized. I would never have thought of half this stuff. Thank you ... you will do bigger things in the future.
More items I've found that is a must is gum, starburst, jolly ranchers, hand lotion, hand sanitizer and mini tissues. I have also found if you step out of your vehicle to open the doors to pick up and drop off. The pax love that. I've helped women in and out of my vehicle and they are almost shocked that I do that. I've averaged at 4.96 for the entire time I've driven for Uber.
you don't need to kiss pax ass to get a good rating ...water...spilled and left on the seat ,gum...stuck on bottom of seat ..candy wrappers left all over back of car ...fuck that ..safe ride from A to B ,,comfy seat to sit on , music, ac/heat , that's enough for the $7 ride ,,,come on !!!
+michael iwaniec well sweetheart, you do whatever you want. It's none of your business what I provide for my pax. If you don't like that? Go take a flying leap. You dumbfuck.
Your the dumbfuck spending all that money and cleaning up all the mess left behind by no tipping ignorant pax ,,,you will learn ..lol
+michael iwaniec My money BITCH.
hence the dumbass comment !!your money
Really nice video... I feel one more item can be added to the list - a Pepper spray in an easily accessible place like Door Console etc.
good 1
you don't wanna wear pepper spray... lookup vipertek flashlight. it gives you the recommended flashlight that just happens to have a 25 million volt stun gun on the end ;)
Dj Swift :
1) Cost difference. I don't know how much the fancy flashlight is, but must be more expensive than a small pepper spray can, that I hopefully will never use.
2) I don't want to be sued by the assailant for "causing blindness/eye damage by knowingly using a powerful light source at close range". Local laws may differ. Pepper spray only causes temporary physical inconvenience.
I suggest buying a Gel Brand Pepper spray gel wont blow back in your face in a windy situation or in a closed space like indoors or in a vehicle! be safe!
I'm a 'Damsel in Defense' rep and we have items you can use to defend yourself if a situation arises. pepper spray, stun gun, weapon to jab someone trying to attack you.
Dope video fam love all your vids....Very helpful, knowledgeable, and beneficial! Love and Blessings to you!
Great job, Calvin. Helpful and fast flyover! Thanks.
Me: why would you need a camera in an Uber?
Also me: *sees a thumbnail of a guy pulling the driver's hair on another video* oh...
Tire iron for whacking unruly peeps. A small radio so you can listen to Rush while playing soothing music for peeps.
pepper spray for the drunk assholes
Loved your video, very informative. I also admire the way you have this whole uber business down to a science!
Hey Calvin, you definitely get 5 stars for this video, great tips and well done. Gave you a thumbs up and subscribed.
You are the teacher that I need while traveling this Uber journey...Thanks for making that choice to teach! I personally, thank you..
This is my second day. And I had a price adjustment. Claimed that I took the long route to their destination! It was raining so hard and traffic was a mess. They had to make another stop on the way, and apparently they didn't want to pay full price. But I won't complain...this is why I needed a teacher.
1 - Assault Rifle
2 - Hand Gun
3 - Training in self defence
4 - Training in mental health issues
5 - Training in First Aid
6 - Defensive Car driving training
7 - Anti terrorist training
8 - Anti terrorist driver training
9 - Rubber gloves
10 - some extra pairs of rubber gloves
11 - Change of underwear
12 - Spare steering wheel (Over gripping will weaken it)
13 - Tissues - lots off
14 - Extra tissues - keep in boot
15 - Body Bag - just in case
16 - Anti spit hood
17 - Sharps box - (you know the yellow thing you put used syringes in)
18 - body mess/fluid kit (for anything that oozes from the body)
19 - Insurance - lots of it
20 - nearly forgot - driving license would help - but not essential
Hope that helps, seems a better option - HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY
Don't forget a shovel is you end up burying your 'mistakes'. *joke*
He forgot ammo Gun won’t work without ammo
Excellent video. Very informative and helpful. A couple of those things slipped my mind. Thanks Simple Driver! I'm gonna share this up. 👍
I really liked this video. I picked up a few tips, and a list of things I need to add to my arsenal. Thanks for taking the time.
you rock

You forgot sunscreen ;) for your arms and neck while driving
the wind shield blocks the uva lights?
Poon Handler idk I think he'll be fine without it...
Awesome video man! Good info and help here since I'm about to start driving soon. Take it easy!
Great video Calvin! Concise and to the point.
Hey man, how did you get the vacuum to work in your car? I bought the exact same vacuum that you bought off Amazon and my suburban won't power it so I bought a 300 W inverter which did not power it so I exchange that for a 750 W inverter and that did not power it either. So if I want to run this vacuum that you recommended, I need to buy a 1000 W inverter for an additional $100. And the inverters that are more powerful that 300 W need to be connected directly to the battery.
And my battery just died, probably from connecting it to those inverters. Now I'm off the road for the night which is going to cost me around $200. All because of a stupid little vacuum.
Charge the vacuum at home once a day if used. You should never have to run the battery dead while out Ubering. That's too much vacuuming...LOL
Ever hard of jumper cables or a power pack to jump your dead battery? They're amazing!
wow that is so like men you are ready for business!!
Great video. I'm thinking about driving for one of the ride sharing apps and this is very helpful
Awesome video. The information is clear and the insight incredible. I am adding all 20 items. Appreciate the heads up.
The Repo Channel says he's repo'n alot of Uber cars. These guys aren't making any money. At least not in Chicago.
If they haven't seen this video I can see how cars can get repossessed. th-cam.com/video/hPh8nSHMo5M/w-d-xo.html
I won't pick up drunks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bud B .....yep
How are you going to identify hes drunk once he get into the car
Bud B I have fun with drunks so far
That's a big chunk of your income!
Drunk ladies are fun 😀
Calvin, Love all your videos. You are the man. One suggestion though, I would really like it if you would post your Video Points - your points to cover notes.
Thanks for all your hard work,
Joe
Thanks for this video! Very informative and helpful!!
You forgot one item a weapon. You got Right to defense yourself.
If Uber finds out you're carrying, they will deactivate your driving privileges immediately. Bummer I know!
A LOT of useless stuff no offense
I'm not offended. What you see as useless is making me and other drivers $1,000's of dollars. Thanks for your comment though.
got em coach
These items are the furthest thing from useless. I've needed just about every single item on this list. Including the vomit bags which saved my car a few times. AND THE LED FLASHLIGHT IS GOD!!! One other thing I invested in was a discrete bluetooth. That way when the GPS announces directions, it only goes in my left ear and passengers can't hear, or even know I have a bluetooth ; ) Plus I can take calls hands free and I look way more professional not staring at my gps.
Hah, I don't think you even have the Uber driver app installed on your phone xD
can you recommend a bluetooth? i may not purchase since the navigation can be heard through my vehicle but, whatever gets you more cash, eh?
Thanks so much. I wish I'd seen it two months ago when I first started Ubering.
Thanks Calvin very helpful Keep it going!!
Excellent advice for organizing a ride share toolbox.
I haven't started driving. I'm planning to do it for first time this coming Monday. Thank you so much for those excellent tips
Thanks a lot for all this info
Thanks Calvin....Good Clear Precise video
Excellent video quality. Nice and crisp. Keep it up.
This is probably one of the most informative and helpful Uber videos I've seen so far. 5 stars.
HI and thank you. well done. just started driving today and am excited! you read my mind and the items you listed are great and then the Digital Apps! Yes they are necessary! Thank you very much.
Fantastic advice! So many things I never would have thought of!
love this video! I live in a state that has bipolar weather, some great essential items to include to this list would be a small snow shovel, ice melt, sand, etc.
Thanks for the great video! I have a question about one of the items and feel ridiculous asking. You mentioned having the Hero Session- are filming your ride as you see from your view in case of an accident or filming inside your vehicle in case something happens with a passenger?
I live in a smaller town and didn't really think of the potential personal safety issues until I came on TH-cam to look for tips. Any advice on how to help protect yourself? I have pepper spray but I've seen comments recommending against it. That's really the only trepidation I have before I start driving.
Thank you!
Great presentation my Brother! Very informative. Keep up the good work, be safe, keep it moving forward and GOD BLESS.....
Thanks Calvin for the good advice!
Very informative and thank you for the tips!
Uber should pay you for this video. It's one of the best I have seen. Very thorough. Well-done.
Thank you. I'm a novice to Uber & this tutorial really helped me, Especially with the tools and technology elements.
Thanks for the video, good info.
Love the list brother
